This class was so enjoyable as Libs is an excellent instructor and structured well. I appreciated having time to deliberate my block orientations and choose my fabrics before starting to make the blocks. The block instructions were clear and easy to follow to achieve success to make a unique quilt. — Heather J.
The class took me out of my comfort zone, which I definitely resisted. I had to tell myself to breathe and let the process happen. I’m so glad I did because my design turned out so great. Libs is such a great teacher and makes everyone feel welcome. — Nicole M.
Loved the mix of choosing blocks, randomised layout and then time to play with layout as I went along. The process was so much fun, I even used a randomiser to choose which fabric went in each block! …It was my first Libs course and I loved it. — Alison D.
