I needed to download the flash player and sign in …you might get some wool tips if you have not been able to take one of my classes…do you have the current issue of Love of Quilting?  Part 3 explains the project on page 62.

    Just finished watching all three episodes. It was so nice to finally get to see you. I am a big fan of yours and haven’t had the chance to make it to any quilt shows or classes to meet you, yet. Keep the projects coming!!

    Lisa; You did a fantastic job on the show. Loved all the Eye Candy you provided us with. Always love to see what new things you are coming up with. Your way of explaining how to do wool applique just makes me wish I was taking a class with you. Not only for the information you would provide but the fun of being around you.
    As always can not wait to see what fabric and patterns you come up with next.

    I just finished watching the 3 interviews. This was so much fun to see you talk about the quilts and wool applique! I wish I lived close enough to come to a class – thank you for what you shared in these interviews! I learned a lot! Your work is beautiful and I love your wools and books and patterns. I’ve always been very pleased with my orders from your shop! :O) Some day, if you ever do a video tutorial of what you teach in classes, I would love to purchase it!

    You did a great job on the videos. It was nice to have a refresh class. I took your class over a year ago. I think it would be a great idea if you made a video of tutorials And added a special tour of your quilt shop and gatherings place!

    Lisa, loved your interviews with Mary Fons. Have you ever considered making videos of your methods so that those of us who aren’t able to attend your classes can benefit from your expertise.

    Oh, I agree with Gloria G from TX. I would love to take one of your classes. I am always hoping that a quilt shop in the Dallas area will have you in for a class when you come to Moda to work on your next awesome line of fabric. In the mean time, I study your pictures and place my orders online. I love your style and textiles. Michelle S. from TX
