What others are saying:

“Juli is such an engaging teacher, and her pace, clarity and detail is excellent. This class helped me to create a quilt mockup using my own fabric collection and was thrilling to do! I will be following up with any classes Juli creates in the future for sure!” - T.S.

“A wonderful course! Well organized, informative and with clear instruction. Whether you're a surface pattern designer or quilter (or both!) you will walk away with all of the tools needed for designing your own quilt mockups. Thanks, Juli!” -N.H.

“Wonderful class! I did the first part as well, and because of that class and this class, I was able to complete my first quilt. I referred back to this class multiple times during my quilt's construction, the videos and explanations were extremely helpful. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in creating a quilt..” - N.B.

“I downloaded Adobe Illustrator and then did a Google search to find some lessons on how to make a quilt in Illustrator and found this class. I had never opened Illustrator before this class. I now have a library of quilt block shapes that I can use to start dreaming up quilts of my own and even my own mock-up. The instructor is super responsive and answers questions in a very detailed and easy to follow way. As the description states, this class focuses on the mockup of the quilt, but not how to then turn that into a pattern. I highly recommend this course.” - Tasha
