Do you make your own quilt patterns? Is it difficult? I want to learn how to quilt but don't want to take an actual class at Joann Fabric so if you ever feel compelled to post about your quilting I WILL BE AN AVID READER! :)
I actually have only made 4 quilts in my life- three within the past 6 months..... but my mom is an amazing quilter..... so I have her as a resource. For a fist quilt I would suggest the one I used out of Bend The Rules by Amy Karol. It is after I made that quilt that I figured it was pretty easy to make your own patterns for the top. Making baby blankets are a good start too because they are small and quicker- so the feelings of sucess are close at hand. I basically am a self taught crafter- I use a bunch of blogs and books to trouble shoot, but love to just "wing it"....
I can't wait for the Hellum family to meet the new addition when you are here!!! I will be adding new pics on Sunday to the baby Sager album on facebook so you can see the belly =)
