Deadline: March 9, 2015 {EMAIL}
Call for Instructors
QuiltCon 2016
The Modern Quilt Guild
Pasadena, CA
February 18-22, 2016
We are looking for experienced instructors who can teach techniques of interest to modern quilters. In general, we like a balance of technique based and project based workshops.
Our workshop instructors offer unique workshops and are the leaders in their field for a specific technique – or they teach techniques that are new to many modern quilters. QuiltCon 2016 will not be able to accommodate workshops that need a dyeroom.
When completing your application, please keep in mind the Modern Quilt Guild covers travel expenses of our instructors including: airfare/mileage, hotel and a meal per diem. Unless they live locally, most of our instructors teach a minimum of two full days and one half-day workshop or one lecture.
