Over my years as a teacher I have written approximately 100+ instructional class handouts for my students so that they didn’t have to take notes the entire class time and so that they could retain the information that was covered in class. I have also participated in “round robin seminars” at Quilt Festival in Houston, that included written information.
Below you will find free handouts, articles, and videos that I would like to share with you you. All that I ask is that you respect my copyright, and do not sell the handouts, teach a class using my instructions, or sell a finished product using this information.
Happy Stitching to you! ~Christen
