I made my own sampler for teaching the class.
Thank you. I wasn't sure if the book gave enough instruction about how to create the designs without having the video course to go along with it.
There is a big difference between a book that names the ruler and shows some pictures vs a book that explains how many cross hairs to mark and how to place the ruler to create the rotation you need.
My plan is to do quilt as you go type blocks (that course is very expensive) because I don't have a large machine. I just don't want to buy the book and find out I really need to buy the course in order to use the book and then have to pay for the book twice.
