This course is a unique combination of structured freestyle quilting. I love it. There is plenty of instruction to put you at ease and vibrant encouragement to push you into experimenting. Thank you, Tara, you rock color and design!

This course was the first time I have ever been given a colour palette and a pattern, and then encouraged to make it my own. The course community page provided wonderful inspiration, along with Tara's discussions about colour and pattern
