Self-taught. LAIG--learning as I go. :)

I am absolutely floored by how many people wanted to answer this. I am so glad that I asked. The thought just jumped into my head the other day.

It's an interesting question/topic which is why so many wanted to answer it, I think. Thanks for asking it.

There really was not a pattern. We would go to class, take notes & then would go home & make the block or two that the instructor demonstrated that day. When I posted the sampler on my website to sell it, someone asked about the pattern & I have not been able to find my notes from that class. I may not have kept them as they were hand written.

I understand that, I can pick out several ofthe blocks, , It is very pretty :D

self taught never took a class i found them to be to exspensive and didnt want to drag my sewing machine to the class

The classes that I attended were all demonstrations. We left with the pattern, directions, etc. and sometimes the fabric

:wink: to make our block. We brought our finished block to the next class to show and tell, ask questions, etc.

The hardes for me was the border of the quilts that I made. I found a book in our library can't remenber the name of it but it did show step by step how to do borders.

Never had the money for a class. I always spent what $$ I had on fabric and get most of my help and ideas from books purchased at thrift stores and borrowed from the library and this forum of course! :lol: :lol:

Self taught also, started sewing when I was 5 or 6 years old.
