Excellent Really Enjoyed This Class  November 28, 2015

Linda's quilts are amazing - and so is this class. Starting with simple shapes and working up to beautiful nature inspired motifs, Linda makes you believe that you are in with a chance of achieving similar results. Well, we shall see - but it's been really fun trying!
A lovely class Linda, and you are a great tutor. Thank you.

Another way to quilt with hearts, leaves, vegetables, flowers, shells etc... These quilting designs can even be used as embroideries. All the technique is very easy to follow and open other doors for a different quilting way. Very interesting class. Thank you Linda.

Love the way Linda starts out with basic shapes and then expands on them with more easy shapes to create designs that look difficult, but aren't! Also love the way she sketches them out before going to the machine, so it is really easy to follow along. I'm not a freestyle artist, but with Linda's class, these motifs seem attainable. Thanks, Linda!

Excellent Brilliant nature motifs  October 4, 2015

Brilliant. This is one of the best of the many Craftsy classes I have taken. Linda uses variations on simple shapes to create detailed realistic looking nature motifs. Linda has the ability to break this down to a simple process and to execute the designs on a domestic sewing machine. A soothing well modulated voice, and a natural teaching style, including how to correct errors made this a pleasure to watch.


So don't delay!  Instructions on how to enter can be found here.  Thanks, Linda

Inspiring Friends

The January/February 2014 Issue

I want to share with you something wonderful that my friend, Linda Turner, has done.  First of all she has put me to shame, by machine embroidering 45 or more onesies for her first grandchild.  I have yet to embroider one! 

Then she took the onesies and created a fabulous quilt with them.  She even included photo transfers of the granddaughter wearing some of the onesies.
Linda Turner's article, "A-Very" Special Quilt

Next she wrote an article  about how she made the quilt, and had it published in the January/February 2014 issue of Designs in Machine Embroidery.  It is titled, "A-Very Special Quilt" and is found on page 62 of the magazine.  She does a great job of instructing you on how to create your very own t-shirt quilt. 

This was her second article that she has written for that publication, and she was featured on an episode of , "Inside Zede's Sewing Studio" where she explained how she does machine embroidery on a little onesies.

By surrounding myself with other talented and creative people, I am inspired to try new and unusual things.  By the way, she asked me to machine quilt Avery's Very Special Quilt.

May you always have inspiring friends! -Linda
