Quilt withdrawal to be solved by Carol Doak
I haven't quilted in at least a week because my husband and I have been busy packing and moving into our first home.
I realized last night that quilting must have a calming effect on me and I should make time to do a little each night, because I've been super stressed over the past few days.
But my quilting dry spell will come to an end tomorrow when I learn how to paper piece at Carol Doak's Sunrise Quilt Mariner's Compass Star class through my quilt guild tomorrow. I figured if I was ever going to try the intimidating quilting method, I might as well learn from the queen of paper piecing.
The block we'll be making is from Doak's book, "Mariner's Compass Star." I'll be sure to let you all know how the class goes.
