book full of surprises

I took one of Diane's classes in Paducah a year or so ago. But we didn't do any of her "games". We worked on some of her new free hand curved cutting and piecing techniques. At that time she was working on a new book.

< This is my project from the class. I just went to a Sandi Cummings lecture a few weeks ago. I love both of their styles.

I did! I went to a "curvaceous squares" class with her at the Lowell Quilt Festival last year. She was fun, funny, and kind. I really enjoyed the class. It was the first curve I had ever sewn, and she made it a habit of coming over to check on me, and even calling the class over to applaud my efforts as a beginner at the end. Definitely made me feel welcome! The quilt was one I never would have tried otherwise. I started sewing the binding on this week. I don't have a photo of the quilting or the completed top yet, but these are the blocks laid out before I pieced it all together:

that worked - the sharing links seem to have changed a little).

Ohhh that's going to be great Lynn! Love the colors! Diane was a really nice teacher wasn't she? I'd take another class from her anytime.

KJ - your quilt is gorgeous. Isn't it extraordinary to see how different our quilts came out from the same type of class?! I love quilting. -Lynn

Ooooh, pretty!!! I've had a hectic day shopping at the mall -- the curves are soothing.

Wow! that is one dazzling quilt! I love it.

OMGosh, Lynn, that's going to be a gorgeous quilt. Love the colors and the design. Does it have a home yet?

Lynn and Kathyl, I love both of your quilts from her classes! Great job. :)
