It begins with easy-to-follow instructions for how to use a sewing machine and advice on buying fabric and tools, and then progresses through 12 projects- one three-hour lesson a month, perfect for friends to learn together.

Other than my Quiltblox patterns, quilt labels, and other printable designs, many of the items in my shop are linked to Amazon. I can search out and offer you the best of the best items in each category, without having to stock that item on my physical shelves. This saves you the time and energy of searching out these items on your own.
Will I earn a small commission – should you decide to make a purchase? Maybe, I hope so. Does that change the price you pay for each item? Not in any way – you only pay the listed price for any item you choose to purchase.
