A few times a month I teach a beginners quilting class. Now let me say, I'm not getting paid and its just totally at random when ever we can all get together at a mutual friends house. Second, I'm not a teacher, I'm more of the worker bee. This has been quite the challenge for me, but I'm loving sharing my knowledge and "expertise" and I say that very loosely. Its easy to forget that your students don't have all the common quilting knowledge that we have stored in our brains for years. Occasionally I pull out this photo to humble my over confident quilters ego. Its okay to laugh! Made from the leftovers of halloween costumes, curtains, chair covers, whatever I had on hand.
This is the one I'm most proud of. It was cerimonial quilt for my dad last year on his birthday. Every color, ever line, every symbol has a special meaning. I did about a years worth of research before making.
