BPQ Workshop Registration
Registration for all workshops is on a first-come, first-served basis with payment in full required to reserve your space. Members are given the first opportunity to register, starting 4 months before each class. Non-members may then sign up 2 months before each class if space is available.
How to Register for a BPQ Zoom Workshop
Send your payment with a note indicating which class you are registering for to the Programs Chair. Please use the address listed in the newsletter or on the members' only page as it is a different address than the public BPQ mailbox.
Please make the checks out to "Block Party Quilters".
Once registered you will receive an e-mail with further instructions regarding class format, signing in to Zoom and any other necessary information from the BPQ Programs Chair.
​
Registrations as always will be space available, first come, first served.
How to Register for a BPQ In Person Workshop
Registration for each workshop opens 3 months before the class. Registrations must be mailed to the Programs Chair at the address listed in the newsletter or on the members' only page. No signups will be taken at the in-person general meetings.

New Location for our In-Person Workshops!
Issaquah Sewing & Vacuum built out a new classroom in their shop/showroom at 1180 NW Gilman Blvd in Issaquah in 2022 and owner Eddie Schultz has very generously offered the use of their facility for our BPQ workshops. The space is designed specifically for workshops such as ours, with 6’ tables for each student and access to shared ironing and cutting stations in their main store area. Even better, for those of you whom do not want to have to lug your personal sewing machine to class, they will make demo machines available to our students! Space will be limited to 12 students per class.
Please join us in thanking Eddie and his team when you next visit their store.
