My friend Andrea was out with knee surgery and asked me to teach her to quilt. We started about 4 weeks ago using the Take 5 pattern. Here it is, completed! She did a great job!

Very cool. She looks like she's ready for a new project.

I love teaching people about my addiction to the sewing machine.

Looks great. She has every reason to be proud. Bless you for sharing your knowledge with her. We welcome her to the club. BrendaK

JNCT14 12-07-2014 02:46 AM

Thanks everyone. She made it on a Brother Project Runway machine and got so excited she ordered the 1/4" foot and FMQ foot. I agree I wish I had had someone to teach me when I started - It would have saved a lot of fabric abuse.😁 . Hey ube I had her use that binding method that you posted on Rhondas last swap - it worked really well!

SheriR 12-07-2014 06:05 AM

Cute! I bet you both had fun!

Ariannaquilts 12-07-2014 08:20 AM

She is very lucky to have you to teach her and did a great job. Now when she spends all her money on fabric she can blame you; -)

Annz 12-07-2014 08:38 AM

It came out really nice. Great job and great fabric choices.

Wanabee Quiltin 12-07-2014 08:39 AM
