Critter Motifs

3/28/2020

 

Tech Know Quilters Open Enrollment Update

It has been a busy week.  I just finished a very limited open enrollment for Tech Know Quilters and will be welcoming an awesome group of new members into our community next week.

Are you curious what Tech Know Quilters is all about?  I did a live webinar on Thursday where I shared more about the group, shared stories and testimonials from current members, and fielded questions from attendees.   ​You are welcome to watch the replay here.

We are still cleaning up the registrations and will be sending out welcome letters for April classes on Monday.   Although enrollment has officially closed, I will take any late registrations through today (March 28, 2020).

Critter Motif Live Events

Have you been stuck at home this last week?  I realized that being home and listening to news programs is not very helpful to my mood and I have been missing my daily visits to the ice rinks (my exercise of choice).    I've also been missing much of my normal live social interaction.  After a couple of days of feeling sorry for myself, I decided to engage more with my EQ8 community by going live every day.  This ensures I have at least one adult conversation each day.  You are welcome to join that conversation.

I saw a post on Facebook showing how to draw a variety of animals and thought that I could use these simple tutorials to improve my own drawing skills.  However rather than drawing with pencil and paper, I decided that I would draw them in EQ8. 

​This has become the subject of my daily live events.

As of this morning, I have 10 posted videos with 10 different critters.  During the "stay at home" period I am planning to add to the collection. 

If you would like to join a live session or watch any or all of the old videos, make sure to follow my Facebook page.  I will typically post an announcement 30 minutes to an hour before going live.  The first couple of recordings were direct cast on Facebook -- but I started having problems with engagement between Zoom and Facebook, so I just decided to do them on Zoom.  The good news with Zoom is that participants can un-mute and ask questions or provide feedback.

Note:  The videos are un-edited -- so they are longer than tutorials on my blog or in my classes.
As a bonus to my Tech Know Quilter members, I will be offering them my Critter Motif EQ8 file at the conclusion of my live events.  Just an added incentive to join during the March 2020 promotion.  

Drafting a Horse Motif Using EQ8

For today's video, I will share an edited version of drafting a horse. 

The tutorial I used as my inspiration was from https://www.easypeasyandfun.com/how-to-draw-a-horse/.  Feel free to download the pdf tutorial from their website.
