"Computer Tools for Quilters"
Why would you want to use a computer to design a quilt? Is it worth the time to learn? The lecture, "Computer Tools for Quilts", helps answer these questions. In the lecture Jennifer shares her experiences and designs using Adobe Photoshop Elements and Electric Quilt. Brief demos of both tools are shown during the presentation along with samples of the quilts made utilizing both these tools. The lecture is a powerpoint presentation / trunk show format.
If a guild is interested in only one of the tools, Jennifer can easily customize the lecture to focus on either Photoshop Elements (printing on fabric) or Electric Quilt.
The classes Jennifer teaches can be customized and offered as a workshop in conjunction with a lecture if there is interest. For workshops or classes, students can "try before they buy" with trial versions of the software: Electric Quilt or Photoshop Elements. Students can also use a PC or a MAC. Jennifer personnally uses a MAC, and for PC only software runs the windows software via Parallels. If you would like to know more about how to use PC software on a MAC, click here.
Lecture fee is $344 or $295 when scheduled with a workshop. Since the workshop is dependent on students having laptops, Jennifer has a flexible fee of $45/person for classes of 6 - 12 students or a flat fee of $550 for more than 12 student. Mileage to Lectures/workshops scheduled in California will be calculated from Oxnard for events in southern CA and from Santa Maria for events to the north or east.
