    Kate's teaching style is wonderful. Too many people tell me that their mother used to criticize their sewing and make them pick out seams until they no longer wanted to sew. I love this.

    So lucky to have a daughter in law who wants to share something like quilting or even knitting with you as a past time. I bought both my DILs machines, paid for classes that all three of us took together and I had them over to work on their quilt tops. They never finished them and never use their machines. I don't even have a daughter to share with. Part of taking these adventures with color and design is sharing with someone else. Enjoy yours.

Im looking forward to seeing her quilt in her colors.

And Anna, I love your choice of color and fabric! I also love Michelle’s squares that we saw at the top of the video. I agree. Her patterns have a” retro” 60s-70s feel . I love the pink/ orange/ brown large daisy print one. I’m also not great with math, I could never figure out how to measure a square! Carry on girls! Can’t wait till the next installment.

    Hi Kate and Anna. I'm not the quilt police because I have never made a quilt in my life but I was wondering about the math. 😆 I thought I will see what happens and indeed it was a little off. 😂 Anna you have become more confident behind the sewing machine. No more stiff shoulders, and you make more speed with confidence. 👍🏻👏🏻
    That math error is a huge lesson, things like that always stick to one's mind in the long run. It's pretty cool to see this coming along.
