I took a class today with Klaudeen Hansen in Oelwein IA. I can happily report she was great about different ways of doing things. I took a Vintage machine (Singer 301) no problems there. She presented the project with pressing SUGGESTIONS of some seams open some to one side. But she had no problems with the fact that I'm of the press them open persuasion. She said it wasn't necessary to press every seam as you go, but didn't pressure me because I like to press as I go. She is teaching some classes at the AQS Des Moines quilt show. If it weren't corn picking time I'd take another of her classes. I barely get time to go to the show as I drive the combine a lot of the time.
