Dear Heather, I am very new to patchwork and & quilting. I was looking for how to design quilting patterns and come a cross your website. I am so impressed and have learnt a lot watching your video. Thank you for making the video. it is definitely encouraging for anyone wants to learn the skill. Looking forward to see more videos and learn from you. Kind regards Shyama
A lot of good information. I am trying to learn & am always wondering what to quilt & where. Heather does a good job. Thank you
Heather, I love all the videos I've seen you in. You and I are so much alike in theory: I want my quilts to look like a human did them. Not perfect. That's why I sign my quilts "by Sunnye"; they are unique; they are what they are. Keep sending out the message that we need to go easy on ourselves.
All these on a machine? Free motion? Newbie here, trying to figure out simple designs for jelly roll quilts. I was thinking more straight line, geometric shapes. Looking for designs.
