Thank you all for your replies. To Lisa7337, for me at first it seemed like I couldn't do this art without actually knowing how to quilt or sew. But I am still learning and in the process of getting better. Lola Jenkins is a great teacher for this class so glad I found a passion and I am sticking with it. And by the way, I watched the video 4-5 times and I still watch it, but that's the great thing about the courses. The class itself is not hard, we only put boundaries on ourselves, go ahead and try it, you'll love it!
