Grandmother's Flower Garden Class....

 Hexie class review....I had a blast!  I hope everyone else did too.  Hunter was with me and he took the photos. 
 I am most comfortable when talking about quilting.  I love it that much.  It is my comfort zone. 
 We had a great turnout.
 The youngest taking the class was 10!  You never know, she may be a quilter some day.  I love seeing younger people doing this.  Also had girls from Hunter's class along with their mothers. 
 This is my neighbor...well she lives about 3 miles away. 
 Everyone was working hard on their hexies...
 I think that everyone left knowing how to do this...
 Newly retired....maybe she will enjoy quilting.  :)
 Sewing right along...
 More sewing...the lady on the end is a Bonnie Hunter fan!  :) 
 Last but not least...my sister Chantal!!!!  This is the first time that I have ever known of my sister sewing!!!  I wanted to cry when she told me that she was going.  LOL!  I've tried for years to get her to try quilting but she never had any interest in it really.  She and Addison came to class.  Who knows someday Addison may be a quilter.  :)
 Posing with Chantal and Addison!  Addison was soooo good. 
 Hunter snapped this photo of me near the end of the class... 
I absolutely love teaching these little classes!  I also love meeting new people ans sharing the craft of quilting.  

When I got home Richard was in bed because he had to get up early for work.  What really made my night was that both of my boys told me they were proud of me.  That means so much to me.

sounds like you had fun and it turned into a family event! sounds like you could get an informal quilting group together with so many neighbors showing up

I am so glad to hear that the night went well and that you enjoyed it. Hopefully you'll get a few "hooked" on quilting. How long do your sessions go? And how far along do the students go - to completing a little hexie flower?

Congrats on another success, Kristie! Your passion for quilting and hexies makes you well qualified as a teacher and I'm sure your students are well taught!
