Cluck Cluck Sew Patterns
 
I recently got an email from a shop I used to frequent in MI and they had talked about several patterns by Cluck Cluck Sew. I went to the website and liked several of them and was wondering if anyone has made them and if they think beginners could do them. (I want some different patterns to teach beginners and to use for workshops.) Please let me know if you have any of them and what you think. Thanks!

here is the website in case one is curious about what they are http://www.cluckclucksewpatterns.com/
to me, some of the patterns look easy enough, but i've never used one, so am not familiar how easy the instructions are to follow.

Thanks for posting the link. They look easy to me as well but I have no idea how well they are written and I sent an email asking questions but never got a response. I'm tired of teaching the basic beginner quilts and wanted something different and several of these looked cute.

they look easy enought to me to ~but even if there not easy directions you will be able to guide them through it
and that wuld be wonderful to teach beginners how to read some of these patterns :)

Our LQS has offered some of these patterns for next level of beginners. (For those who know how to make 1/4" seams and use a rotary cutter.) I think it was Off Track that was done.

I had to smile when I saw this thread. I also saw an email that was sent out recently from a MI QS. This morning I was going back through some of my emails and was attracted to the Off Track pattern. I really like that one because I can use up some of my stash strips and it is a more modern pattern. I also think it would be a fairly easy pattern that can be completed quickly, which would be a nice compliment to some of the more difficult quilts I am working on now.

The picket fence quilt is really cute and would be great for a little girl. I'll have to try that one!

A lot of their designs are cute and I love the pattern company name. You can't help but be intrigued by the name and smile. Hehe

I just looked at the site, the patterns are quite nice. Being a new quilter myself, I would probably try quite a few of those. Most look quite easy (if time consuming). If the directions are difficult to follow, tell you students what my mentor told me. "One sentence at a time." Just read one sentence, not the whole step. Understand it, then move on. It really works.
