Taking classes

I have been working on some blocks for a beginning quilt class. I am not teaching this one but taking it. I have taught beginning quilting now for 9 years but never had a class on the subject myself. I had no intentions of taking this class but I love this teacher. She just recently came to work at our LQS and I thought it would be interesting to see how she teaches. She has a beginner class, intermediate class and an advanced class and the quilts are so cute. In the beginner class, it is a 6 week class and covers everything, hand piecing, applique, machine piecing, quilting and binding. I have gone to 3 classes now and I have actually learned something in each class. It is nice to sit back and listen to someone else for a change. I plan on taking all of her classes now. I have really enjoyed this class and it is good to have a refresher/update every now and then to see how others do things. She told me when I talked to her about taking the class that she would teach me like I was a beginner. I told her that is what I wanted and it has been great. The ladies in the class are all great too. It has been really fun and I have made some new friends along the way. I'll post a picture of what we've been doing later. til next time...
