GETQUILTY
Hooray! Hooray!

I'm excited to introduce my newest eCourse, Get Quilty. It's all about quilting, but not just making quilts.

The eCourse is completely go at your own pace (there is no start date) and will be held on a private blog. Your access to the course will never expire (so you have as much time as you need to complete the projects and you can always refer back to lessons). Minutes after you complete your transaction you'll receive an email with instructions for how to log-in.

I created five new projects just for this course and love every one of them so much. The goal was to pack a ton of different sewing techniques in and I really wanted the home items (and a rad clutch) that felt modern and fun. All five of these projects would make fantastic gifts for the holidays (or fantastic things to keep for yourself). They are also all projects that have a ton of flexibility once you know the basic pattern. (Three cheers for getting more bang for your bucks.)

This class is for a beginner quilter (or advanced quilter who wants some new ideas), but you do need to know how to work your sewing machine. I would even go so far as to say you need to be comfortable with your sewing machine. If you have that covered, these projects are easy to follow and will be broken down step-by-step. You can see a list of additional tools recommended for completing the projects here.

In addition to the five project tutorials (photos of the completed projects are shown throughout this post), I wrote in-depth lessons that share my own quilting story, quilting basics, how to find and apply inspiration and suggestions for fabric pairing.

You can find full details and purchase the course for $32 USD here.

I so hope you enjoy! As always, thank you for reading.

    How comfortable? Basic seam sewing comfortable? I can thread mine and sew simple patterns? Is that comfy enough?

    So glad you did this! I have zero knowledge of a sewing machine but I do own one and I’m excited. Between my MIL and youtube, I think I can figure out some of the basics, right?

    Can’t wait! Have you thought about setting up a ‘get quilty’ FLICKR group so participants can share their results in one place?

    I love all the projects you have planned, Elise, I’m thinking the pillow might be my favorite!

    haha – hi Loris! You need to be able to thread, change the bobbin, stitch and back-stitch, and do basic machine troubleshooting. 🙂

    having a MIL to help will be key! You just need someone to get you comfortable with the machine and you’ll be good to go. 🙂

    This looks fabulous! And that fabric on the inside of the clutch is TO DIE FOR. Can I ask where it came from, or is that something we’ll find out in the ecourse?

    Woohoo, looking forward to this class! I’ve wanted to learn how to quilt for awhile. I haven’t used my sewing machine in 10+ years, but I’m sure I’ll pick it up pretty quickly again! If not, it’s a good excuse to give it to Mum and upgrade 😉

    Ok, I think I’m gonna go for it. I’ve never sewn on fabric before, but I’ve sewn basic decorative stitches on paper (for scrapbooking). I can thread my bobbin and adjust the tension on my machine. Also, my Mom sews (although when she’s tried to teach me it has usually ended with us yelling at each other). 😉 My MIL, a proficient quilter & upholsterer, will be here for the holidays, so if all else fails I’ll wait for her help. Love the projects!!

    Are there any videos or is it more step by step with pics?
    Do you level each project so we start with easy to more difficult?
    I’m scared of the zipper! :). The projects look amazing.
