beccauk Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Hi just wanted to update about quilting, I purchased a couple of courses from craftsy , but not had nerve to try yet, but did enquire about courses at local quilting shop I found a lady has a little place at side of her home and runs classes and has a website , does the quiting shows seemed very nice and helpful. Told me about a beginners course 6 weeks all you need is at least 3 fat quaters and you make a sampler type thing like a wall hanging I guess, she said its always best to choice who ur giving it to or where your putting it when choosing fabric as people end up stuck at end what to do with it. I have seen the fabric and have it ready to start going to put it in my utility off my kitchen , hopefully. I start my course tomorrow night she emailed me yesterday with another block of courses starting, im abit nervous with my manual k"Ooops, word censored!"bed jamone sewing machine and 2 cottons and afew bits . Lol im not good with meeting people I dont know. wish me luck il show photo finished maybe during my course if not too embarrassing. I have my fabric ready to start my quilt with one of the craftsy courses but holding out to start as dont want to mess it up lol Thanks for all ur advice becca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Lots of individual attention then. You'll soon have the skills and confidence. Log cabin is a great block to do. When you've made a few you can create really interesting designs just by the way you lay them out. Your block looks great, I really am going to have a hunt for the fabric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Well done - and I love the fabric. One of my favourites is a log cabin. Lots of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I've found the fabric and bought the blue/red stripe, green eggs, blue with green chickens and the blue feathers. It's so nice I'm not using it yet, it needs stroking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
