I love that technology, including the internet, enables us to share our knowledge and passion in quiltmaking. Blogland (and, indeed, “Quiltland“) is full of valuable resources provided by generous artists. This was demonstrated to me anew today as I received this instructional DVD as a gift from Patsy Thompson:
Patsy is a regular reader of my blog (and vice versa!) and kindly credits me* and Robin Ferrier of quilt-antics as part of her inspiration in including a video demonstration of alternative quilt finishes. I’ve viewed the DVD and am impressed by the production qualities. Most of all, I am struck by the natural warmth of Patsy as she shares her knowledge and free motion machine quilting skills. You know, I might just attempt some vines and leaves in my next quilt!
* See, for example, my tutorial on facing a quilt and other posts on finishing a quilt without binding,

That looks like a video that I might just have to buy. I am tired of doing pantos and want to expand my free motion techniques.

Hello Brenda,
Patsy is a great person. I had her in to teach machine quilting for my guild, and she was wonderful. I have all of her very good DVD’s and I tell everyone about them. They are some of the best around on the subject.
