What was your inspiration?

Amy Gibson's enthusiasm for this project.

What are you most proud of?

Just stepping out of my comfort zone a little. I only began quilting approximately a year ago, so doing this online BOM is not as intimidating as doing it with lifelong quilters in a quiltshop.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Just do it!

Thank you! I'm a "baby" quilter. I just began making very simple 10" square quilts for a group called Quilts of Compassion (check them out on FB). The ladies there have been so very kind, supportive, and encouraging. They have been wonderful teachers and mentors. I have been blessed. They have given me the courage and confidence to try the online Crafsty cuorse...which is my first online cuorse.

Love the BOM idea & just in time for me to do a quilt for my nephew who graduates from college! Now, I need to get started! Online is so much better than lugging the s.m. + supplies to classes. Thanks for the "free" opportunity!

Do you have a friend that quilts. that is what got me started. My wonderful friends took me by the hand and led me through my fears.

I don't get the whole idea of this site. I see the photo but cannot see anything else. What am I doing incorrectly?
