Wondering What to Expect From My Patterns?
Read below some thoughts sent by my customers.

 

I downloaded your flower sphere pattern and have to say that the instructions you give are phenomenal.  I am a novice quilter and was able to follow everything easily.  I made a quilt that I am very proud of thanks to your amazing design and instructions.  You are a very talented designer and give clear and thorough instructions which have been invaluable.  Thanks again and keep the great designs coming. Steve
I just read through your directions.  I don’t think I’ve ever purchased a pattern with such detailed and clear instructions.  You even included how to quilt.  What a great job you’ve done.  I look forward to getting started!  Thanks. Zoe Ann
These patterns have exceeded my expectations…you have gone into such precise detail about every step with pictures no less; these are the best pattern instructions I have ever bought. I can not wait to make all of these purses, I thank you so much for making this so easy for me.

I haven’t really done a lot of sewing in over 20 years since high school and was getting frustrated with other patterns, but this looks so easy, you have even managed to make the zipper look easy to insert…thank you again. Michelle

By chance two years ago, I stumbled upon your “Twice as Nice” Double Pouch pattern.  I was intrigued by it and I bought the pattern and went for it as my very first pouch making. Your instructions were so incredibly clear that I was able to complete the project with an amazingly cute pouch. I have made quite a few as gifts since and everyone who received it just loved it.

Then I later ventured into the bags pattern and made a “Chantal” bag out of my favorite Japanese fabric.  I struggled through it and again came out beautiful.  The experience really has built my confidence in bag making.  Above all though, it’s your wonderful instructions that made all these possible.Lolita

I just wanted to tell you how happy I am to have discovered your patterns. I love the graphic quality of the patterns and when I first saw them, my imagination just went wild. Thank you very much for the inspiration and inventiveness of your patterns.Jeanne
I bought your patterns and they’re the best I ever bought and I bought already a lot. Corinna
Thank you so much for all of the downloadable patterns. Not having any trouble so far with anything, all looks great. These are really terrific patterns and a lot of work has gone into putting them together and such amazing instructions to follow. For that I thank you again.Sally
So happy to have received three more of your beautiful patterns. As always, it was so easy to download/save the pdf’s from the links in your email. The patterns are comprehensive and easy to follow and the templates nice and clear. Thank you for such prompt delivery…I look forward to seeing your next creation.Gai
I LOVE your patterns … they are always so clearly and precisely written. Thank you so much.Anitra
Your directions were very clear and having pictures helped a lot. Barbara
When I read your patterns I think you give a lot of extra information to the person buying (for instance by giving other color options and being very detailed in your explanations to make sure the buyer understands the process) more than many other pattern writers I’ve come across. Brit
To sew this bag was pure fun. Never ever before I’ve sewn a bag according to such a good and super explained directions with amazing photos.I love a pattern with seam allowances included. In Geta’s direction, you are guided through the sewing process with clear and excellent photos, that show in reality and not as a graphic every step you have to do. The photos are so illustrative, that you even don’t need much English knowledge to walk through the sewing process. Martina/Germany
You have really made me more aware that I can machine quilt. I’m still practicing but am getting better. hanks for the confidence you have helped me with 🙂Sue
I really enjoy your patterns. Very clearly laid out, useful pictures, in fact, everything to make creating quilts a pleasure.Heather
I love your creativity. You inspire me to create things I might not have tried if I did not see yours first. Your quilting is wonderful and I hope you continue to inspire many more.Nancy/Canada
Love your patterns as they are so different and a lot of work has been done for all the detail. Always look forward to your emails. Ruanne
I am a return customer (a couple of times actually); I always like your patterns, they are clear and easy to follow and make me proud when I finish them. I have never had trouble with downloads and you have always been quick in answering an email to me. I love the designs – so bright and colorful.Sandee/Australia
I am in awe of your talent as a quilter – your designs are beautiful and your patterns are amazing! You are very inspiring to me.Laurie Ferguson
I am thrilled with your patterns. They  are very original and beautiful. Your instructions are very easy to follow and beautifully illustrated. Thank you. Barbara/Helena, Montana
I first saw the Love Letter pattern and was struck by how beautiful it was. I had to have it! I am not a very experienced quilter, but found this pattern easy to download and easy to follow.Dana/Texas
I’ve downloaded designs (both free and purchased) from you, and the instructions are always clear and easy to follow. I’ve even e-mailed you with questions, which you’ve very graciously answered in a timely manner. The addition of full-color pictures is helpful. Maryann McClain/Hattiesburg, MS USA
Hi Geta,
I happened to come across your work and web page about a month ago, and could not help myself but purchase a handful of your amazing patterns. The purchase/transaction was clear & the download links were easy to follow.

I work in IT, and I have to say your instructions and tutorials are exceptionally clear and well thought out so even a novice quilter such as myself can have confidence for a successful outcome. Thanks again. Michael in Boston

I am inspired by your unique patterns and free motion quilting examples. You provide helpful detailed instructions and many pictures to guide the patterns. You instill confidence to try something different.

I have had no problems with electronic purchases and receive them within 24 hours. Thank you from an appreciative customer in SC, USA!Liz

Geta’s designs always amaze me and her pattern writing skills are superb! My favorite bag is her Danielle bag and I’ve made and gifted them twice.  Geta’s instructions are easy to follow and her customer service is excellent!  Lara B/Lewiston, NY, USA, www.buzzinbumble.com
Geta’s triple pattern (Belle, Amelie and Nicole Bags) is the best bargain out there.  The download comes with printable patterns for all three bags.  Once you cut out the pattern pieces and tape them together, where necessary, you have all you need to make a lovely bag.

The  pattern pieces are precisely drawn and fit together well during construction.  The written instructions are thorough and easy to follow.  The photos just add that measure of assurance while sewing. The results are phenomenal.

I have made two Belle Bags and love the style, with plenty of pockets for everything you’d need to carry.  I can even  stash a water bottle in an exterior pocket.  You can’t go wrong with Geta’s patterns if you want an easy sew with an astonishingly stylish result. Kathleen

I would rate my experience with Geta’s patterns a 10! I love them! Hers is the first book I ever ordered and had signed by the author. It meant the world to me as a new quilter. It is one of my most prized pattern books.

I truly admire her work and how involved and time consuming each step of each piece of art is accomplished. Her directions are easy to understand and although my level of expertise is nowhere near hers, it is possible to make a great product from the pattern.

I enjoy her website, the emails, the free patterns and look forward to everything she shares with us. Thank you Geta for sharing! Barb Mikielski

Geta’s patterns and tutorials are wonderful!

I have purchased her patterns and used her tutorials for a number of years now and have found them to be one of the best around. The pictures that accompany her patterns are superb and easily followed. The outcome is always beautiful!

Geta also offers wonderful service whenever I have ordered a pattern. The process is simple and I have never experienced any problem in downloading or in receiving my order accurately and promptly. Love her patterns! Louise Babbel

Hello Geta, I first discovered your patterns when I was looking for a hand project that was a little different. I have done English Paper Piecing before but would get bored with doing the same thing over and over. I found your website on my search for something special, something different.

The treasures I found on your site were amazing. Your spheres and beautiful shapes were exactly what I was looking for.The patterns arrived in my email quickly and I was able to download them without any trouble.The patterns were clear and very complete including information as to tools you like to make the process easier.

One of the best things about your patterns is that it is more than just the pattern. You show a way to quilt it and even have a free tutorial. I felt that if I really got stuck I could send you an email and you would offer suggestions. You have provided hours and hours of enjoyment while I have been working on these project. Thank you!Jeanne/Santa Cruz California

I have purchased so many of your patterns that I have them in a separate binder. I have completed two of them. When I ordered the first one I wasn’t sure if I would be able to do it but with you fantastic instructions with the pictures for each step, it was easy.The patterns have arrived within a couple of hours of ordering and were easy to download.

When I have taken the quilts for show and tell people are always impressed and ask about the patterns. My response is the same:”The patterns look complicated but with Geta’s step by step instructions and pictures that go along with the words you too can do this. You even get pictures of suggestions for quilting.”

I love that your patterns look like complicated and like nothing I have never seen before but with your easy to follow instructions and pictures you make it easy. Thanks again. Michele

I have purchased patterns, and I have purchased entire quilts from Geta. The level of service has been without equal. Downloads have been flawless. Response time has been excellent.

When buying the quilts, the international shipping process was smooth and monitored from the Romanian end  in great detail. I could not be more delighted with my business relationship with Geta.

Your patterns are some of the most beautiful and well thought out patterns I have seen and you are most generous with supplying free patterns throughout the year. I have bought several of your patterns and a book and have downloaded several free patterns, I have not, as yet, made items from your patterns but have read the instructions and they are easily understood and I look forward to making them.

You are a blessing, by sharing your talent with others, in the form of designing, selling, and giving help with your patterns as needed. Your patterns inspire one to want to continue to create something beautiful.Pat Renfroe, Pensacola Florida

I love your patterns because they are unique and they appeal to my love for geometric design. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. The pictures are very relevant and helpful.

I purchased your Geometric Gradation pattern and, although I have not been able to start it yet, I read through the pattern and you made the quilt seem very easy to make.

I never worked with raw edge applique before coming across your patterns. I always found them to be raggedy. Your method, however, is very nice and it is hard to tell that it is not needle turn. I also love the way you suggest the quilting.

I love the way you write instructions. They are easy to follow and you give suggestions for quilting. Not only that, but each of your patterns and quilt suggestions are explained in tutorials throughout your site.Juanita Lanaux/Colorado Springs, CO www.quiltedby.me

Geta, I’ve ordered patterns from you several times. They came to my email within an hour of ordering, even though you had a much longer margin… great service!

Your patterns are entirely unique and gorgeous, creative and to be envied! I hope to do the lovely hexie ball I first bought from you, and my daughter and I have plans for the small purses and boxes for gifts this year.

Thank you for your generosity and your great imagination!  Sharon in Colorado

Dear Geta,
I have bought some of your quilt and bag patterns. The patterns are very easy to download ( I have satellite internet, it’s very slow). The patterns are very easy to understand and use. You also have some really nice tips included which I personally appreciate very much.

I hope you continue to create these patterns. I also appreciate the fact that you allow people to sell the items made from your patterns.Sharon S Smith

I have purchased two patterns from Geta: the Amelie bag, and the Parasol quilt.  Both of these patterns are amazingly detailed and so well written!

She explains her construction techniques so thoroughly that you are bound to be successful if you just follow along. I made seven Amelie bags for all the attendants in my daughter’s wedding, and they are all so gorgeous!

I ran across Geta’s blog on the web, and was immediately drawn in by her amazing quilting – everything she does looks perfectly executed and her designs are different from anyone else’s.  I began to follow her, and have taken advantage of her free tutorials. Gay Brearley

I love your patterns because they are like nobody else’s and they truly come from you. The patterns are thoroughly written and photographed, they usually have a variety of sizes and several mock-ups for different colorways, which I like.

I also love the special tips you include within the patterns, about finding alternative supplies (trying kids’ washable markers for fabric, using price tags to keep all the little pieces straight, for example) when you don’t have a local quilt shop around the corner, and about how to manage your materials, works in progress, and time!

From time to time I share your quilts on Pinterest (new patterns) and IG (that you had your own quilts for sale on Etsy) because I admire your virtuosity and the way you inspire quilters to attempt designs that look very complicated.  Lizzie Tillström in Sweden

My dear Geta,
I have your book, quite a few of your patterns that I purchased, and many of your free patterns.  You have your very own folder in my treasured patterns and inspirational documents on my computer.

I have found your patterns to be clear, not at all confusing (except in choosing which of the many many options you include with each one). You are one of my favorite quilt designers and one of my favorite people to do business with.  Brenda Wiseman

Dear Geta,
Your designs are so fabulous. I couldn’t help myself but to place an order as I viewed your site for the first time. I received your patterns almost instantaneously!!

Then, I somehow managed to delete that email, losing it to cyberspace and unable to find it anywhere. I sent you an email, explaining the situation, and again, your response was almost immediate–despite the time difference as we are across the globe from each other. You so kindly resent the patterns I’d lost. YES! This made me certain that I will remain an active fan and customer.
Again, your designs compounded by your kindness will keep me buying from you.Laurie Nathan

I don’t know how I stumbled on Geta’s website but I’m so glad I did. She has helped me so much to build confidence with machine quilting. I’ve been a hand-quilter for many years and it’s hard to learn something that much different but I am!

Her patterns are amazing. The instructions are clear and the photos are wonderful. She puts a lot into teaching.

I also bought a wall hanging quilt for my home and I look at it everyday- it’s so gorgeous!! Geta has a very unique style- one that you will probably never see anywhere else. I’m so glad to know Geta!! Sue Keida

I’ve ordered one quilt pattern from Geta and the payment and delivery process were easy as pie.
The Windows into my World pattern is as easy to understand as it is stunning. Since it’s provided in four different sized designs, it was easy to make a simpler version of it before tackling the most complex of the pattern options. Kristen Pickering, Bear, Delaware (USA), http://tenquilts.blogspot.ro/
I have made Amelie bags for my friends and family and the pattern is perfect. Everyone wants an Amelie bag.  The direction in the pattern are excellent.

Yesterday I sewed a “Simply Chic” bag. What I like BEST about the Chic pattern is that you include one full page just with measurements and layout.  Consequently I do not have to print pages of patterns. I have ordered patterns from others that force me to print ten pages only to find out that I could have easily cut everything from a measurement list. I like your measurement lists.

I also like it that you provided a link for how to sew in a zipper on the back. I have sewn at least fifty back zippers, but I still read your instructions just to see if I could pick up any tips.

Also, I like how you always display sample photos of your bags in a variety of colors. The photos are inspirational.Margaret

I have bought ‘My Rainbow Garden – wholecloth pattern’ which is simply gorgeous. I have very recently purchased a mid-arm quilting machine and my intention is to get much better at free motion quilting. This design of yours is perfect! It will give me lots of practice with free motion on this new machine as well as making a totally delicious quilt. I love your style of quilting and the designs you have for sale are unlike anything I have seen before.

The pattern downloaded just fine – no problems here at all.  The instructions are very clear and helpful. Additionally, there is so much more by way of free tutorials on your website to help and inspire.
Thank you so much for sharing your talent.Jan in the UK
