I teach a beginning quilt class at Village Fabric Shop.  I LOVE beginners; they think I know everything!  It really is fun to help them pick fabrics, learn to piece and then surprise themselves with their beautiful tops!  Here are some of their creations.  The pattern comes from Julie Herman’s book, Skip the Borders.This one belongs to Anne-Marie.   Her 4-patch fabrics were a great pick.

Love it!  She was in the shop just yesterday to pick her binding.

Amelia made this quilt for her grandchild.  She’s getting ready to machine quilt it herself.  It’s a happy quilt!

This Tula fabulousness belongs to Christi. The back of Christi’s quilt.  Gina Allen quilted this for her.Steph’s beginner quilt.  Don’t you love the set??  She and Anne-Marie (first picture) are besties and we had a great time in class!The pieced back.  Love it!  Gina Allen quilted this for her.This beauty belongs to Linda.  It’s a grandson quilt and I know he will love it!

Here’s Jean’s beginner quilt.  She used only eight fabrics.  She has it basted and she’s planning on hand quilting it.  Great looking!

Last, but certainly not least, is Laura’s lovely creation.  Such a great set.  She started binding it this week.  Laura Davies quilted this for her.

Such beautiful quilts!  A big thanks to my beginners…they aren’t beginners any more!!
