What was your inspiration?

Just signed up for this class, a couple days on the heels of Design It Quilt It, and decided to combine some elements from both classes....I am learning a new sewing machine, and this was just the thing for controlling stitch length and rhythm for me.

What are you most proud of?

Having fun with it, and not needing to be perfect this firstt time out...

Your work always stands out! I am trying to decide between 3 machine quilting classes. Got any recommendations?

I really like all three that I'm doing, Negative Space with Angela, Design it Quilt it with Cindy, and Leah Day's Sampler quilt...a little different info in each, but all have set me in a good direction. Right now I'm finding the Negative Space class most in line with what I'm trying to do, but the others will continue to add to technical knowledge and insights.

Oh thanks for the info. I didn;t notice this till now. I took Angela;s class and it is great. Only thing is I wish the feathers were included. I definitely want to take a couple of the other ones as well.

You are doing so well. I love to learn. It is a joy to do so and it sounds like you are sharing that joy. Don't worry so much about the stitch length. It just comes with experience and I didn't even bother to look at stitch length. I just enjoyed all the designs especially the wonderful pebbles. I like the assorted sizes.

Thanks! I am enjoying your talent, both at quilt design and with conveying it in your course...I am a scribbler by nature, so this really speaks to me.
