Rediscovering quilting

A couple of weeks ago, Valerie introduced me to Geta's Quilting Studio, a quilting blog by a self taught quilter with an interesting history. It is easy to be inspired by this passionate quilter! Her quilting projects are just beautiful. Click on the link and see them yourself!



When my finger joints started to protest, I decided to put my quilting on hold. I had planned on teaching myself to machine quilt last winter to the point where I had borrowed the books from the library, made notes and actually made practice blocks ready to be machine quilted. I had forgotten all about it until Valerie gave me the link to this quilting blog.

Here's one of the practice block showing one of the techniques that I did.


Value Village is a good place to find something to quilt for the right price. Here's a cotton table cloth I found with a beautiful design just ideal to practice those techniques I had learned.

There are 4 different kinds of machine quilting technique used here. It turned out to be such a fun and easy project.

So, thanks for pointing me to the right direction, Valerie!
