It's a wonderful shop with great fabric. She was teaching a class the first time I was there and it was exciting to see her. I'd love to take a class from her at some time.Miss Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06856562175207518634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-15236704695650371312013-02-20T14:49:21.170-08:002013-02-20T14:49:21.170-08:00I took classes from Harriet several years ago.

It might not take Malcom Gladwell's "10,000 hours" to be an expert but that couldn't hurt! I hear Cindy Nedham's machine quilting class is excellent and plan to take it next time she's close.Rabid Quilter from Californiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07838215045002688885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-8380918832272459092013-02-20T06:32:06.483-08:002013-02-20T06:32:06.483-08:00I have the Quilter's academy books and love t...I have the Quilter's academy books and love them.

I remember listening to her with my mouth practically dropped open. I thought of myself as a pretty good quilter but man, not as "attentive" as her? Is that the phrase. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the class, I just realized there was a LOT out there to still learn. The Fiber to Fabric book was just out and she included some of that information in our class, too. I wish you had posted a picture of her--when I took the class she really reminded me of my aunt!JoAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16725295327088235909noreply@blogger.com
