It's late Thursday evening, and was wondering if I'm crazy for even trying this so soon. Making quilted totes is usually for the intermediate to experienced in quilting only. I have only been quilting about 9 months, but I feel like if I studied a pattern long enough I could learn. Are there any special tips to follow? I'm very serious about this. I WILL learn, even if it kills me. Because I am starting my business late in life, I'm determined to make a go of this. I've even purchased a pattern for a tote bag. Should I give it a try or wait a while? Opinions please.
