\t\t\t\tGammill <\/a>instructor, will be teaching Road 2016\u2019s Statler Educational Program <\/strong>which is a series of four longarm lecture\/demo classes featuring the Gammill Statler Stitcher: 4017R \u00a0Put the Hammer Down for Beautiful Borders! <\/strong>on Thursday; 5015R\u00a0 It\u2019s a Photo Finish! <\/strong>on Friday; 6015R \u00a0Victory Lap! <\/strong>on Saturday; and on Sunday, 7015R Statler Pit Stop<\/strong>.\"Georgia<\/a>\nWhen Georgia Stull\u2019s oldest son announced he was getting married, she thought she would make him and his new bride a quilt as a wedding gift.\u00a0 Georgia had been a seamstress (wedding gowns to window treatments) since she was a teenager so sewing the quilt was not an issue. When it came time to have it quilted, Georgia and her husband, Ivan, took the quilt to an area quilter who proceeded to tell them all about his quilting machine.\u00a0 As they were leaving, Ivan said to Georgia, \u201cYou could do that!\u201d\u00a0 Her reply was \u201cSure, if you buy me a machine!\u201d\u00a0 Two weeks later, Ivan took off work early and bought Georgia a machine!! She couldn\u2019t have been more surprised.\u00a0 Ivan was all ready to buy a Statler by Gammill<\/a> for Georgia but she just wasn\u2019t sure she could do it.\u00a0 They did lots of research and eventually bought a Statler four months later.\u00a0 And guess what? Georgia can do it!!\"stull<\/a>\nIt didn\u2019t take too long after Georgia started quilting that her husband, Ivan, decided he should learn all about quilting.\u00a0 He pieced and quilted his first quilt with a little help from Georgia.\u00a0 Now, he has pieced and quilted 5 quilts<\/em>.\u00a0 Georgia is hoping that their oldest granddaughter, Ellie, will be a future quilter. She is off to a promising start. \u00a0Together, Ellie and Georgia made a quilt for Ellie\u2019s doll babies this past summer.\nSince most of Georgia\u2019s quilting is for customers, her inspiration comes from the quilt tops they bring to her.\u00a0 Georgia is a \u201ccomputerized quilter\u201d and she is honest to say that she \u201cdesigns by credit card!\u201d\u00a0 While there are many wonderfully talented digital pattern designers, the trick is to find the perfect pattern to bring a quilt to life.\u00a0 Georgia loves the challenge of putting together the perfect combination of designs for a quilt.\u00a0 She is also inspired by the fabulous quilting of others. As a teacher, she is exposed to the very \u2018best of the best\u2019 quilts. Georgia remarks, it is \u201csuch golden inspiration!\u201d\"Stull<\/a>\nGeorgia has used a Statler by Gammill from the very beginning. Because the Stulls live in Harrisonville, Missouri (just outside Kansas City), it was easy for them to take classes at the Statler facility in Columbia, Missouri. Georgia actually learned from the master, Paul Statler.\u00a0 She counts Paul and Mildred Statler<\/a> as good friends whom she respects and admires very much. Both Ivan and Georgia have showed up so many times at the facility that they are sure the Gammill people thought, \u201cIt\u2019s those Stulls again!\u201d\n\"gammill_plain\"<\/a>\nIn 2008, Georgia was asked to be a beta tester for the software and she also became a Certified Statler Instructor. She has come to know many of the members of the Gammill team as she\u2019s traveled and taught. Georgia says that \u201cthe Gammill team always takes good care of me as a teacher.\u201d\nGeorgia loves meeting quilters from all over the world. She has been fortunate to travel as far away as England and Wales to teach. She always tries to remember how when she bought her Statler, she was more than a bit overwhelmed and thought, \u201cWhat did I do?\u201d \u00a0She loves helping her students go from \u201cWhat did I do?\u201d to \u201cI love my Statler!\u201d\"Stull<\/a>\nAt Road 2016, Georgia\u2019s desire is for students to become efficient and effective quilters without compromising quality. And more importantly, she hopes that they enjoy the process because, as Georgia says, \u201cquilting is FUN!\u201d\nWhat is Georgia\u2019s best quilting tip? \u00a0\u00a0\u201cDon\u2019t be so critical of yourself and your quilting.\u00a0 Computerized quilters, especially, tend to expect absolute perfection.\u00a0 I am all about doing the best that I can on every quilt but it is never going to be perfect.\u00a0 It\u2019s so hard to enjoy the process if you expect perfection.\u201d\"Stull<\/a>\nHow would you like to meet Georgia and take her Statler Educational Program classes for FREE<\/strong>?
