She swears the 30 isn't an exaggeration. They made her pick out so many of the seams so many time. When I saw the piecing, it was really really good, but I would have set the thing on fire if it were me. And for a 1st time quilting beginning class, they had them do 2 LeMoyne stars (love Y seams!) and CURVES and CIRCLES. Yeah, way to start someone off. Forget those 9 patches or rail fences. I'm just glad she's found a new shop

Just make sure she takes a class from another shop and can see for herself that there are as many kinds of quilters out there as there are quilts. She will be fine!
