Awesome job Nan. I am hoping to play with the rulers from her class tomorrow as we are expecting a Nor Easter.

Great job Nan. I'm hoping to do it too, but you have certainly given me encouragement.

Thanks. I have tried the beginners straight and curved, but have a hard time holding it secure. After seeing yours I think I'll give it another try.

I'll be doing that same design in one area today. I practiced yesterday and like the outcome.

I have a few rulers also, but do not have the special foot used for ruler work. Dislike purchasing a foot if I do not like working with rulers. Should I take a class at the LQS before investing. I think the foot is about $75.

Like what you have learned so far. Thanks for showing us.

Advice please. Thanks.

are you using the gripper strips that come with the beginner set? i used a piece about 1/2-3/4" long about 1/3 the way in from each end because that's where i tend to hold it
