ReplyDeleteI'm working on learning to paper piece - how generous debbie, thanks!
ReplyDeleteI really want to learn how to fit a pattern to me. I have been sewing some clothing for myself but am having trouble with tops. Skirts and dresses or jackets are pretty good but then tops I made neither one fit right. Not sure why.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to learn to make a quilt by hand completely. I guess that would be more time needed which is always elusive. Thanks for the giveaway!
