But I have to admit that after reading how many of you have taught things at church or in a group, I'm beginning to think I can do it too. I mean, what'll they do to me if I can't answer all the questions? It's a church group....they have to forgive me, right? lol

Give them something really difficult to quilt and they wont come back!
As for the priest. Return him to Canada and we'll try and keep him here for you!

But since they're beginners I'll need to explain to them that quilts take time and no matter when you start a quilt, you're already 6 months behind :) (or at least I am. I'm a slow finisher)

fabric-holic, don't worry, I teach and just last night I was working on my grandson's quilt and I'm just putting the quilt together and I had to undo it because I left out 6 small borders and it wouldn't go to gether right, I had a page missing. So just take your time, make sure you have all pages and you will do great.

What a wonderful thread and such great information. I teach embroidery at a LQS, and the part I worried about most was questions I couldn't answer. What I did was have a note book, and would say, "you know I am not sure about that, but I will research that and I will have an answer next week. Thanks that was a great question." I then write the question down, and move on.
