I saw you at the Quilt show in Ontario but missed your lecture. Will you be teaching a class out her in CA any time in 2009? I know that a number of people I know would love it.

I've been sewing forever. Quilting has always intrigued me and frankly, intimidated me! Ordered a kit today and am more than willing to "give it a go".

Just wanted to make a comment on "The Story"--it was one of the most emotional/inspiring and teary pieces I've ever read in any quilting issue--the story was very well written and very well thought out--me the retired English major really loved it!!

Mary, What a great question. Lots of people are worried about how the grid affects their quilts.
The grid will stay in your quilt, it will not dissolve. However, once the quilt is washed you will not feel the grid. The fusible grid that we use now is much more light weight than the old ones, and it does not make the quilt stiff.
Thanks for your question, Crooked Nickel Quilt Designs

Hi Lisa: Just a note to say how much I enjoyed you at our quilt guild meeting in Tyler, TX last Thurs. Sorry I did not get to take any of your classes, but bought the T-shirt book and materials and look forward to having an easier time than I did my last two T-shirt quilts I made for graduating grandsons (I have 3 more coming up).

LOVE your blog site. The videos are wonderful. Congrats on finding your "niche" (after 30 yrs. of hairdressing!!)

Once I fuse my quilt, sew it, then have it quilted, will that fusing grid make the quilt stiffer than a quilt with no grid or will it dissolve when I wash the quilt?
