What was your inspiration?
Even though I'm not a beginning quilter, I've learned so much with this year -long quilt project. I made 24 blocks total based on the 2012 Block of the Month Craftsy course. These blocks were combined to make 2 quilts, of which this is the second one. I have already previously posted the first one. I greatly improved my free-motion quilting skills with Leah Day's "Free-Motion Quilting a Sampler" course. I find the Craftsy courses very inspirational.
What are you most proud of?
I am most proud of my free-motion quilting on this quilt. I even tied and sunk all my thread ends - just like the professionals. :)
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Pick a Craftsy course that you are interested in and just work through it step by step. You'll be amazed at what you can create.
