While these designs begin with simple shapes, many also incorporate curves. Beginners will glean lots from this class. However, Jodi has won and continues to win awards using these same designs on her contest quilts, so intermediate to advanced quilters who want to add modern touches to their quilts will gain a lot from this class as well.

Jodi shares ten basic designs. She emphasizes each of them in three ways. First, she shows the design stitched on her quilts so you can see how these simple shapes really come to life on an actual quilt. Next, she sketches them and shows variations. Finally, she demonstrates the stitching and thread path on a longarm machine. That way, when you begin to use these same quilting approaches, whether you hand quilt, have a longarm, or quilt on your home machine, you will completely understand how to successfully adapt these designs to your quilting projects.

We recommend that you watch the class in its entirety and become familiar with the downloadable materials. At that point, if something is unclear, click the “Contact Teacher” link to a question and Jodi will get back with you.

We know you are excited to get started. After you have purchased the class, you can enjoy it anywhere and anytime you have Internet. The class belongs to you, so watch it as many times as you like!
