BABY ZIG ZAG QUILT FROM START TO FINISH

Only one day after taking Quilting 101, one of my students started my Baby Zig Zag Quilt class. She made it a kid-size quilt, not in baby colors and not in a zig zag pattern. This shows how you can really make a pattern your own, and it came out so great!

MORE QUILTING 101 STUDENTS

This class was held on August 23rd. Four great ladies are on their way to being great quilters!

ABOUT ME

I have been quilting since the early 1990s and have taught many beginner quilting classes in my home and various quilt shops in the area. In 2001, I started my own professional long arm quilting business and quilted more than 120 quilts for my customers over the next two years. One quilt that I did the custom quilting on toured the country with The Alliance for American Quilts and was raffled off, raising $10,000 for that organization. The quilt was featured on the television show Simply Quilts on HGTV and in Quilter's Newsletter Magazine. Another of my quilts, which I designed myself, won a ribbon at the Heritage Quilters Guild Quilt Show in Lockport, Illinois, in 2003.
