I've been there, believe me, many times, and it's not easy. At. All. But so worth it in the end. Woo! I do like that Fox quilt on the green background!!! Isn't it interesting to watch each student as they approach and work through a project? As a teacher, I find that absolutely fascinating, and I learn so much. Not missing those kind of temps. At. All. I don't know what the eye conversation is about, since I'm not on Instagram, but I do like the very first elephant eye the best, the top left block. It's very realistic. Have you read The Elephant Whisperer? One of my favourite books of all time.Sandra Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17737049269550479188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6222010192421604268.post-22648341811279620092015-01-24T09:36:52.216-05:002015-01-24T09:36:52.216-05:00What a charming looking quilt shop!

I knew you would do great and gosh I would take a class from you in a heartbeat! <br />LOVE the blocks for Elephant Parade. Is't it funny how exactly they match your design concept? That's the cool thing about designing it to completely beforehand.

Sounds like it went very well. Last night, the manager at my LQS asked if I would teach a beginning free motion quilting class in the shop. I was so excited about the possibilities I could hardly sleep. I will be getting together with her soon to discuss it in more detail.
