    If you've taken any quilting classes which one's did you enjoy the most or which pattern did you make in a class that you liked the best?

    My group did a brown bag quilt. Everyone brought in scraps and the teacher told us what size to cut them (I think 2" square) and we threw them all in a brown bag and picked out a handful without looking. You couldn't but back any piece's, what you got is what you used. And she told us what kind of pattern we were making. It was fun, I would like to do it again.

    Okay...found the quilt...Here' a picture. We had to use our own background material. And it look's like we also had another bag with 4" square's we cut in triangles.

    Paper piecing and FMQ were the most helpful.I also enjoyed needle turn applique.I guess I like classes that teach technique after looking at what I posted.
