    Join award-winning miniature quilt artist Ellen Carter for an engaging one-day workshop where you'll learn the art of miniature quilting through her charming "Stars and Trees" pattern. Ellen, whose work has been showcased multiple times at the prestigious Houston Quilt Festival, will guide you through the techniques and precision required to create beautiful miniature quilts that capture the same detail and impact as their full-sized counterparts.

    In this hands-on class, you'll discover the joy of working in miniature while learning valuable techniques for accurate piecing, precise cutting, and achieving perfect points. Whether you're new to miniature quilting or looking to refine your skills, Ellen's patient teaching style and expertise will help you create a delightful miniature quilt you'll be proud to display.

    About the Instructor: Ellen Carter is a celebrated miniature quilt artist whose work, along with that of her sister Andrea Blackhurst, has been featured in multiple exhibitions at the Houston Quilt Festival, including the 40th anniversary Ruby Jubilee Celebration, the 45th Sapphire Celebration, and most recently in "Red, White, and Blue Traditions in Miniature" at the Festival's 50th anniversary.
