Mad Modern Rulerwork
for beginners

an in-person workshop by

Kate Quinn

Saturday, November 1, 2025
Registration Opens September 2nd!

9:30 am to 4 pm (Arizona Time)
at 35th Ave Sew & Vac's Event Center

Supply List

Rulers:
Kate will have rulers that the group can use. There will be a ruler rental fee of $15 payable to Kate the day of the workshop. Please plan to have exact cash if possible to make that quick and easy.

If you have questions about what to bring, your machine, extension tables, ruler feet, or any of the other items on the supply list, Kate invites you to reach out to her by email or phone. Her contact info is on the supply list.
If you need to purchase a ruler foot for your machine or an extension table, please be sure to order it in plenty of time for the workshop since it can take 3-4 weeks to get an extension table. The instructor also sells these items (contact her directly). You can purchase from your usual sewing machine dealer or 35th Ave Sew & Vac.
AQG members who have shown their membership card to the cashier get a discount on all purchases at 35th Ave Sew & Vac. (See Help!, Members on the top of the page to print a membership card.) Ask them to put it in the computer.

Want to attend but don't want to bring your machine? Maybe you don't have a ruler foot and would like to try this technique before investing in one.

35th Ave has eight Elna 782 machines you can rent for this event!

The cost is $40 for the day. Call 35th Ave to reserve a machine at 602-841-5427. The machines will be set up in the Event Center, ready to go with a slide on table and ruler foot! Just bring thread, your small tools, and the items on Kate's Supply List.

Learn more about Kate Quinn

Kate Quinn's fascination with quilting began when she received a Grandmother’s Flower Garden quilt as a wedding present. The gift of a second scrappy quilt further solidified her love of fabrics and colors.  Her first quilt was made to celebrate the birth of her first child around 1993. She has loved quilting ever since. 

She loves all styles and types of quilts from art to modern, from traditional pieced to applique.  She also loves how quilting is a connection through the ages and across generations.

As a stay at home mom with five children for 18 years quilting became Kate's social connection. It was the one thing that “mom” did for herself. With her family having served in the Army for over 28 years and moving so many times, quilting has always helped Kate connect in a new community and to build relationships.
