Advanced Beginner Series:
If you have completed a "Learn to Quilt" class with Susan, but you'd like to learn more, and you'd like to start a new project with some supervision, then you belong in this class!! You'll choose your own project, and Susan will troubleshoot as you interpret and follow instruction from your pattern or book. Each week you'll learn an advanced technique not covered in the beginner class. This is a great transition from beginner to independent quilter.
