And if you did, what did you make and did you like doing it? Was it hard to do? Watched a demonstration last week and wondered. Thanks.

I took a class a few years ago but I've never made anything. It isn't difficult, just wasn't my cup of tea, I guess.

It looks like something a person could pick up and do, when the pains of quilting get to be too much. It is a little break or will be if I start one.

Here is the book we bought for the class--

And the hook you need to do it with --

It really is simple. You could easily figure it out from the book, but the class was still fun.

It looks interesting :lol: So what are you making ?

judylg

To start off I would make a hot pad size square, it is just something to learn on. It looks easy for sure. But as with anything looking easy and being easy are two different things.

Here's a video for it.

Wouldn't it be difficult to maneuver larger pieces of the grid? It seems so stiff and uncooperative.

fabric-holic

Not really. The canvas/grid only comes in one or two sizes (I can't remember). And it's stiff at first but it softens a bit as you handle it during the process.
I can't remember how the pieces are put together to make one large finished piece. Sorry.
