These booklets were created
to serve several purposes.
-
As a "take along" project.
Stick them in your pocket or purse
& take them along to the kid's soccer game, or study & trace them while waiting at
the dentist's office. There are so many ways we let time escape us every day.
The idea is to turn "down time" into "learning time".
-
As a workbook.
Start with the simple basics and
traditional stand-bys and progress on to original, thematic
designs. Beginner
& experienced machine quilter alike, will
find new inspiration.
You are
shown not only what to stitch, but HOW to stitch it. Clear, arrowed directions
are included where necessary and will make each design easy to accomplish.
-
As a ready source of designs when your
brain takes a holiday!
No need to try to remember over 140 freehand designs. They're all right there, in books small enough to lay on top
of the quilt you're working on. Just turn to the design you've chosen and
follow
the arrowed instructions.
-
As a sampler of the designs
you can offer your clients.
Avoid
misunderstandings.
Your
customer will be able to choose the look they want from designs that you've
already stitched up.
-
To help you coordinate the
patterns you use on the quilt.
There are patterns in each of the books
that go well together to give a cohesive look to the quilt.
(Enlarge the page samples picture above.)
To practice ~ Start out with pen & paper.
Your brain really doesn't care whether you use a needle or a pen.
The
rhythm of
the pattern still
gets embedded in your brain's memory.
So
GO FOR
IT!
What have you got to lose but the fear!
