    Got my first class under the belt yesterday. I was the only man there but it does not challenge my manhood even though some of my male friends have lifted an eyebrow, LOL. The teacher seems like a great person and the other students were cool too.There is 6 students in all. The teach said if we ever run into a problem we are free to contact her and she will help us out. The class meets for 8 weeks once a week for 2 hours.

    We went over the color wheel and how to organize colors and the basic tools we need. It was a 2 hour class and it went by fast.

    I have learned a lot from this board too for not knowing one end of a tread from the other.

    Thanks and blessings to y'all.

    Good for you for going to the class even though your man friends turned up their eyebrows at you! :thumbup:

    Quilting is a wonderful hobby that is very rewarding. We look forward to see the things you create! :D

    Sounds like fun, and with 6 students you will have time to get all your questions answered.

    Have a great time. You will learn so much, not just from the teacher but from mistakes everyone in the group makes.
