Fear-Less Quilt-making

~ create & share your stories on cloth ~

"Ellie is a fearless quilter, actually she's a fearless stitcher, weaver, crocheter and natural dyer too. I have enjoyed the 'Fearless Quilt-making' online course for a couple of years. Ellie encourages me to find my voice and be confident in decisions about fabric, thread, colours, and techniques; from tying a quilter's knot in my thread to sewing on the binding.
The variety of quilts she demonstrates means I am able to revisit sections of the course, and I often sew alongside her. I recommend this course for beginners as well as more experienced quilters, particularly those who follow patterns as this freeform style is liberating!"

What exactly is Fear-Less quilting?

Fear-Less quilting is the name I’ve given my style of quilt-making. It’s a form of improvisational quilting allowing your own voice to shine through. This course might just change your life! I found when I started this process for myself it re-set my thinking about all my creative making. Courageous quilting is about taking a leap of faith to create something beautiful, mindful, practical yet speaks of your personal story. It’s Fear-Less & improv quilting, using instinct, art-making & a whole lot of joyful moments having conversations with your cloth & thread.

"Ellie walks you through many different processes. The videos are clear and easy to watch. The instructions are clear and easy to incorporate into your current style. She is very generous with her knowledge and I highly recommend this class for anyone looking to begin or expand their knowledge of improv quilting".

FAQs

  • How do I access the online course?
    All my courses are hosted through Teachable, which is an online platform. You can access it via your desktop or app (no app currently for Android unfortunately).

    You have lifetime access to the course, and can watch it straight away.

    Once your purchase is approved you'll be redirected to my teaching school.
  • What will I learn?
    This course takes you through the whole process of making a quilt, from threading your needle, making the quilt 'sandwich' right up to binding your quilt.

    I share multiple processes for creating designs, from traditional quilting blocks to my own style of creating quilts - something I call Fear-Less quilting.
  • Do I need to have a sewing machine?
    Not at all. You can absolutely use your sewing machine if you would like, but there are also processes shown on how to hand stitch your whole quilt. Many of my quilts are made without a sewing machine.
  • Is this for beginners or advanced quilters?
    This course is perfect for beginners. If you've never done any quilting before then I'm here to guide you through the steps of making your first quilt. Please note that my way of working is much more instinctual; there are no specific patterns involved, but instead a process-led way to create your own artwork.

    Advanced quilters might appreciate the non-traditional processes that I share. I talk about stepping away from perfection, and instead embracing your own inner creative self. Many of my students are from backgrounds where they had to unpick stitching is it wasn't perfect, and they say they love learning from my ways.
