Well, I kinda took a class.

I took a class through my new quilt club and it was terrific.  Well, I kinda took a class. Since we are new to the area I'm trying to get established with a doctor and wouldn't you know it, the only appointment I could get was on the same day as the class.  I was going to cancel going to the class but I'm glad I didn't.  I was only there for the first hour and then the last hour.  My new patient appointment took longer than expected.

The class was with Lura Schwarz Smith.  She is an AWESOME art quilter.  She did this one in 1996.
I absolutely love this quilt.  What a talented lady.

The next quilt is the one we were to work on in class.  I didn't get mine started but I got all the instructions and I heard the lecture.  I feel confident that I got enough information to create the traditional blocks with the curved perspective.  

Lura is a great teacher, I recommend her class.  True I was only at the class for 2 of the 6 hours but I heard enough to know that I would take another class from her if offered.  Besides, she had attended our quilt meeting the day before and gave us a "trunk" show,  telling us a lot about her methods.

  I could tell from my new friends that they liked the class and they were making good progress starting their quilts.


I'm sorry I didn't get to stay for the entire class, I think I would have loved every minute. Who knows, I may get another chance one day.

Lura brought instructions for another quilt as well.  It is simply beautiful.
