Good website to learn quilting/patchwork
The first place that comes to mind is:
www.quiltuniversity.com Several people in this group have taken lessons; and, with one or two exceptions, have found the classes excellent. The classes are many and varied, and the whole organisation is structure so that you can work in the way that best suits you. You can ask questions even! I suggest you go to the site and have a look to see what's on offer? From your question, I presume you are unable to find classes locally, at a Quilt Shop or some such? There might be someone, known to the people in the Quilt Shop, who would give you a few private lessons? If you have a local shop, pop in and see what they suggest. ..

Thanks Michelle -- Best Regards pat on the hill |

Danielle did post the following link that I think is informative. Now that
I'm addicted, I thought I'd pass it along for others to enjoy. I did watch Eleanor Burns make Christmas stockings. What a hoot she is! Thanks again Danielle for another item on the addiction list!

Howdy!
Welcome, Michelle, to the big, wide, wonderful world of quilting. ;-D One of your best tools is the search engine. Google or Yahoo get me to most of the info I want/need about quilting. Here are a few sources to get some basics about quilting: http://mccallsquilting.com/lessons/ http://www.quiltersnewsletter.com/ http://www.sew-whats-new.com/quiltlessons/ http://www.kathkwilts.com/lessons/ And of course, RCTQ--right here--is full of knowledge, advice, fun and a few smart alecks who enjoy quilting & playing w/ quilts. ;-D Ragmop/Sandy On 7/12/06 12:58 AM, in article , "Michelle" wrote: Hi Can anyone tell me a website that i might be able to learn from?

Anytime! I've got it going in the background as I read through the
newsgroups at the moment....there are quite a few interesting programs if you don't mind Eleanor's unusual communication methods! :-) She's very unique, but she's a great teacher!

This website is the most comprehensive quilting info that I've ever seen. It has great instructions on every sort of piecing, applique and quilting technique. Have fun and good luck! http://www.victorianaquiltdesigns.co...ry/Library.htm Leslie & The Furbabies in MO. Michelle wrote: Hi Can anyone tell me a website that i might be able to learn from?

Thanks everyone for your info.
We are going to have classes where i live (rural country town in Australia) but not for a few months yet and i thought i might have a go at doing something simple prior to the classes starting. I will give it a go!
