Now you can learn to quilt in the comfort of your own home at your own pace
I am busy planning and preparing loads of great quilting information for all you quilters. I am dividing it up into easy weekly classes that you can subscribe to through QuiltCetera’s
Yahoo Group.

As I come up with the list of topics, my husband suggested that I share it with the group.
Of course, he always has great ideas! This gives all the members an outline of what to expect and something to look forward to. We are starting with absolute basics to cover all bases. If you are a more experienced quilter, then consider this a review!

that you would like to learn?

Hopefully this will create a solid foundation for quilters who are just starting out or
have limited experience.

Are you looking for simple beginner projects to get started quilting? Want to learn to make a baby quilt or maybe a table runner. What ever it is you would like to learn, I would be more than happy to create a tutorial for you.

Simply join in by subscribing to our quilting group and ask me what ever you like about quilting. If you are lucky, your suggestion may even be featured here on our blog.
