Took a quilting class as a non sewer/rookie 10 years ago and was scared to death!!!! As a result of that class, took every class I could work in my schedule, making difficult quilts, table runners and projects including purses. Bought several machines including Janome 12000 and 1500 which are sewing/embroidery combo. Started embroidery classes and from there, made all my twin grand-babies nursery items...sheets, bumper pads with name, curtains, quilts that I free motioned and am currently making dolls for them. Never in a gazillion years did I think I could accomplish all this from that first quilt class!!
