Welcome back...

Hello everyone,

Owning this website is not free, so I spend my time opening and closing my account depending on my possibilities to afford the cost. Luckily I can close and open my website without loosing any data, that is a great feature allowed by Kajabi.

The reason I'm back is that I love my website and all the documents I have worked on in order to share them with you. At first my objectif was to have an income with my website, but there are so many documents available on the internet, that it is difficult to generate some money. So I have decided to offer for free as many projects as possible.

I will only keep my course Designing a Quilt 101for 207 dollars as I believe it is worth it for the documents and videos that I have prepared.

Welcome to my blog, I will be updating it regularly with attractive projects and patterns.

Templates BD01 to BD05

blogs templates tutorial Jan 16, 2023
 

Hello,

I have been working for a long time with the Marti Michell templates that I really enjoy as they have corners that allow the pieces to fit perfectly together.

The shapes suggested by Marti Michell are the traditional squares, half square triangles, et other shapes.

I wanted to go further with new shapes that didn't have anything seen before.

I used the Marti Michell size as a guide, so these templates are based on a 4 inch finished size, the seam allowance being included, the templates are 4 1/2 inches.

Here is the video presenting the PDF boards, 

If you join my membership (which is free), you will have access to the PDF and to my sewing videos.

Enjoy these 5 first templates.

DESIGNING A QUILT 101 - MODULE 1

 

I created the online version of my course DESIGNING A QUILT 101 in 2019.

I love creating content, I got a day job where I got to create content for students learning english, and I also created a course for teachers searching for original ways to teach english, it turned out to be a 450 page course.

I can say that I am a course creator, since only 1 person trusted me on this and bought my course in 2020, I will be sharing with you a modified version of the video. All the exercise pages and bonuses are of course only available by purchasing my online course.

Hope you enjoy this first module, there are 9 modules all together.

MOTIVATION

blogs Jul 07, 2021

My environment has a big impact on my motivation to design, create, make videos, take pictures.

For the past year and a half, Covid could have been the reason for my lack of motivation in my work, but the reason is a change of day job. 

I was working on a golf course only 11 minutes away from my house, in February 2020 I had to leave as the person I was replacing came back from her maternity leave. I then searched for another day job, and found a position on a golf course further from my home (45 minutes).

The distance would not have been a problem if I had enjoyed working there, but it wasn't the case, I was not accepted by the two people working there, they saw me as an intruder, which was ridiculous as they needed me because of the work load.

From the day I began working there, I was miserable, unhappy and desperate to leave, but with Covid happening, I needed to keep my job as I needed the income.

I tried to keep up with my objectives of videos, leaflets, projects. But I...
