The Sewing Mom

I purchased this fabric last week for a quilt I am going to be making in a class I signed up for. The class is a beginning piecing class. While I have pieced together fabrics for tote bags and purses, I’ve not done anything larger than that. I also haven’t worked much with triangles or smaller pieces, so I thought I could learn a lot from the class.

Today was the first of four sessions. I will go once a week. Today we simply cut all the pieces and it took almost 3 hours to do that. This was a good process for me because I’m not good at laying the fabric out and cutting. I feel like I’ve all ready learned some helpful techniques that I can use.
