They really aren't that hard and it'll give you good practice to try them!<br /><br />Let's go quilt!<br /><br />Leah DayLeahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03674869334249298532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-12767470819010884322009-09-30T19:41:06.900-04:002009-09-30T19:41:06.900-04:00I am thrilled and amazed by all your designs and a...I am thrilled and amazed by all your designs and a downloadable book with patterns and all that sounds so great. 40 is a good number too. I want to spend some time with many of these. I would love to see maybe it organized by level? like 40 total beginner fillers... as I am a total beginner and have so far avoided trying any of them becasue I feel like they all look so hard for me.shebaduhkittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03640776450402139577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-26389518055639671082009-09-30T08:12:15.282-04:002009-09-30T08:12:15.282-04:00First, Happy Birthday from another October baby. l...First, Happy Birthday from another October baby. lol I wish I was a baby and NO, I am not anywhere near the young age you are. <br />Second, I look forward to your blog everyday and can't wait to see what you come up with next. <br />I am AMAZED at your talent at such a YOUNG age and very incouraged by the ease in which you do each design. You do great work and sharing your talent and designs with fellow quilters is very, very appreciated. <br />Third, Love, love, love your blog. Thanks again for sharing. <br />Sandy<br />sandyssewclever/blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15114845983490060489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-25497794917673464492009-09-29T12:11:07.487-04:002009-09-29T12:11:07.487-04:00Okay, I just *LOVE!* your blog, and I really enjoy...Okay, I just *LOVE!* your blog, and I really enjoy getting a new design every day. I've never tried free-hand machine quilting until I found your blog, and it's going "swimmingly"! I'm doing an okay job of FHM quilting, and I'm *really* enjoying it and having ideas of my own (though I have yet to try my own yet).<br /><br />However... Do I *really* need to sign up for the newsletter? I check your blog *every* day (sometimes multiple times each day!). Is there really anything you can "give" me on a weekly basis that you haven't already given me on a daily basis?<br /><br />Inquiring minds want to know. =-)<br /><br />BTW, have I mentioned that I *LOVE* your blog?!? =-)Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18290498016642859265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-7238859048891175292009-09-29T08:56:39.310-04:002009-09-29T08:56:39.310-04:00Hi Quiltluver and Carol - Those are both great ide...Hi Quiltluver and Carol - Those are both great ideas! I'll definitely go through the videos and make sure to organize them that way.<br /><br />The one thing I would like all of you to keep in mind is that even with an advanced design, you can still master it even as a beginner.<br /><br />Just make a quilt sandwich with a fat quarter and practice!<br /><br />I wrote this in an email recently:<br /><br />The more you practice, the better your lines will look. But if you don't practice and don't try, your lines will continue to suck forever! Really you have nothing to lose by trying.<br /><br />I just don't want anyone to limit themselves or not try a design because I put the word "advanced" on it.<br /><br />Let's go quilt!<br /><br />Leah DayLeahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03674869334249298532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-17086831692298365492009-09-29T08:21:00.435-04:002009-09-29T08:21:00.435-04:00Great idea.

If you are going to do a DVD, it might be helpful to us newbies if your DVD were organized perhaps by level of difficulty, where one design builds upon another? I started kind of late and was going to go back through some of your "beginner" videos first.

My stitching is not smooth enough to try a quilt yet but I will. I always thought this was something I could not do but watching your videos made me think I could.
