If you ever wondered if taking a Machine Quilting Class would get you going in the right direction..........here are a few thoughts from Sylvia S., who took Jean Cable's machine quilting class!
Sylvia said..........."I just about got tired of working on it but I was determined to finish
it before I start another project. I started it about a year ago and put
it aside waiting until I found the backing for it. It is a queen size
and I did all my free motion quilting thanks to a class I took at the
Quilter's Loft. Erica, be sure to thank Jean for me. Her class was very
helpful!
Here are some pictures with details of her quilting. A beautiful project....Sylvia....thanks for sharing!

So How does this Mystery Work You Ask?
Well we are glad you asked! It is not your traditional Mystery!
This one is a Mystery to the
Staff of Quilters Loft! What!! We won't know what you are making??
Interesting! We thought and thought...........but not all of the
projects offered for Downton Abbey were, well let's say, not our cup of
tea! Some of them were pretty, .......but really didn't work for a club
atmosphere!
So the Plot thickens!
You pay the registration fee and
purchase all of your fabrics at the Quilters Loft. Fabrics will be
held until the April meeting, and then will be released to the sales
floor.
Select your project or design your own.
It can be any size, shape, or project!
There must be a represented amount of each of the fabrics! Yes, the "I love it fabrics" and hum "not my favorite ones"!
But!!!!
Do not reveal what you are making!!!! This is your SECRET!!!!!! You
are the Mystery designer!!!!! You all are so talented and creative!
Inspire us!
