View Full Version : Making quilts! Frankie Lee 02-26-2006, 05:39 PM I have made 2 quilts in the last week!! I am teaching my 12 yr old DD how to sew!! VinnysGirl 02-26-2006, 05:50 PM making quilts is fun!!! I'm actually working on my first one right now!!!! I can't wait to see it finished!!!! BLBnJVB3 02-26-2006, 06:34 PM Do you know of any websites that help you to make one. I really would like to make one and my hubby said he is giving me til April 1 to make one but I have no idea where to start. VinnysGirl 02-26-2006, 06:38 PM try JoAnns website or even Hancock Fabrics, and then they can link you to quilting books and stuff like that... you could even search Quilting shops in your area with a search engine and maybe find something. They have classes and a lot of them will get you to make a quilt in just a few weeks!!! Becca 02-26-2006, 06:44 PM I love quilting. I made one with my MIL before we moved out here - she was teaching me. It's so fun, but I get so sad when it's done LOL...

They have classes and a lot of them will get you to make a quilt in just a few weeks!!! Thanks. This is a whole new thing for me. I have never sewed in my life. John's grandma got me a sewing machine last week and now he expects me to make all kinds of stuff. Once I get started I will be really anxious to see the finished product, too. VinnysGirl 02-26-2006, 09:31 PM I can't wait to get to the finished product as well!!! I know it's going to be great!!!! Good luck with yours!!! WorldClassCandles 02-27-2006, 07:55 AM I have always wanted to learn to make quilts. do you really need a sewing machine to make them? VinnysGirl 02-27-2006, 09:22 AM no you don't have to have a sewing machine, but it makes it MUCH easier and faster!!! machine quilting has become the new age of quilting, though some people still hand quilt Frankie Lee 02-27-2006, 11:48 PM I quilt qith a machine! I am too lazy for doing it by hand! |
