    Thank you AnneMari. I'm very glad you enjoyed it and hope yo have been inspired to try it. Unfortunately, there is a Curious glitch, which only lists 4 of the 6 videos in the course. You can find the other two on our FABinBC Youtube channel.

    That sounds exciting Teresa. My daughter made a beautiful rug from the clothes that I had made for her and her sister. I would love to see a photo when it is finished :-)
