Read the Comments of Other Students of More Amazing Quilted Photography: "Tammie is a lovely, energetic & wildly creative
woman! I thought quilted photography would be intense and
difficult, but with amazing results....only half of that is
true, her technique is simple, clear and it does yield amazing
results! I've gotten many, many compliments on my quilted
photo from women who have quilted far longer than I have!
It is so much fun watching the images appear almost like magic!" "I've been quilting for 3 years and have never seen
anything like your quilts, and I just had to take your class!
It looked difficult but in fact is so easy and fun! It was
like paint by number but with fabric. Thanks for bringing
these techniques to us." "I learned more about color value in the one day class
than at Art School! Tammie's instructions were great! I watched
my photo come to life in the class. I will treasure my quilt
for a lifetime!" "Tammie, I did enjoy your class very much. I was a little
apprehensive at first, but the more I worked on it and started
sewing, it all fell into place. My husband couldn't believe
what he was seeing! Everyone that comes over keeps asking
" How did you do that?!" "I learned so much about the color value of fabrics!
I now use this knowledge on other quilt blocks and wearable
art. What a valuable addition to my quilting education! Thank
You." |

"My daughter Rosie (14 years old), made a Quilted Photo
of a dolphin and entered it in the Los Angeles County Fair.
She won a BLUE RIBBON and is very proud of her quilt! Thank
you" "I love this technique! Simple to sew and so rewarding!" "Your class was the best I have attended! Everyone placing
squares of fabric, critiquing colors, pressing and sewing.
Then the ooooohs and aaaahs; as masterpieces appeared, as
if by magic. Everyone who has seen the Quilted Photo of my
grandchild cannot believe it was possible to achieve! When
they cannot figure it out, they look across the room at the
mirror opposite of it and GASP. Thank you Tammie for a great
innovative creation." "I loved your Quilted Photo™ class. It is such
a great sewing idea, as well as easy. I loved it and so did
my family. I gave my mom the quilt for mother's day and she
loved it. Your quilt idea helped me enjoy sewing and it is
my motivation to continue to learn more techniques and ideas.
Thank you" |
