Mary Beth Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Bettie, I only get to go when I can take off work, so I usually go when there is a really good speaker - they are pretty flexible at my job. I live in the Nashua area....just off 291 Hwy. I know where Randolph is - just south of Worlds of Fun, right? I have the Hartley Fence workbook and am reading it and looking at pictures....Myrna??? Help me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justahelper Posted April 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Since I saw my first Baptist Fans I thought how cool they are, so when I was working with Myrna to make the DVD and saw how easy she made it look I had to try it. You know how it always looks so easy when they do it on TV, well the way Myrna teaches it step by step it is so easy even I could do it. Myrna gives you so many very important little tips (Like "Wiping out the cookie dough") that it really works just like "As seen on TV". Take a look at the pictures I posted again, and look at the close up. The one in the upper right corner of that quilt was the first Baptist Fan I ever did in my whole life. AAMOF That entire quilt was the very first thing I ever did using the Hartley Fence, and only the second quilt I ever did. No practice, No muslin sandwiches, Nothing. I hoped since it was a humanitarian quilt, whoever got it would be too happy to get it to be very critical so I just went for it. The HF and the DVD made it so fun I had a hard time letting the quilt go. Call Myrna or APQS and order the Hartley Fence and Myrna's DVD and start having fun.

JudyLee Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 You are so on target with this topic, for me for sure. We (DH and I) picked up a Hartley Fence on Friday and I tried it out over the weekend, between company. I thought it was loads of fun and I love the quilt you made. I contacted Myrna to ask whether I should get the book or DVD. I am very visual, so am leaning towards the DVD. Thanks so much for the inspiration!
