Spotlight on Helen Godden

[@kgandb]

I can't say enough about Helen - she is amazingly talented, yet so willing to teach and share - she makes it easy for anyone to feel like an artist!

[@sheliaahillwig942]

I am so glad that you featured Helen. She has inspired me for a few years. I can't say enough about her work.

Proud fellow Australian here! There is a farm in regional Queensland where I have been to quilting retreats a handful of times and it has a Helen Godden original piece on display - I admit, I went all fan-girl over it, took photos next to it etc.! What an inspirational master 😍

Helen is so talented. Her quilting is exquisite. Just love to watch her create her masterpieces.

Retiring this year, $82K biweekly, this video reminds me of my life in 2023, you have really inspired me in so many ways!!!!!💜

[@TeddySebastian-p]

I'm feeling really motivated. Could you share some details about the biweekly topic you brought up?

[@JabariTommy]

As a beginner, it is essential that you have a mentor to help you stay accountable. In my case, Claudia Ann Brandon has guided me for months and I highly recommend her. I focus on her. To be honest, I'm almost hesitant to let someone take charge of growing my finances, but I'm so glad I did.

Can't imagine earning $85,000 biweekly, God bless Ms Claudia Ann Brandon, God bless America 🇺🇸 ❤️

[@AlvarezSantiago-l7r]

I started my trade with $5000, and in the of one month I got credited with $22,000. It remains my biggest win for the year 2024

After we (my husband and myself) raised up to $150k in the last year we got a new house in a choice and secure environment. We live happy now

Love you Helen!!! Thanks to HQ for featuring her!!!

[@TheJAG1357]

Love watching and learning from Helen. Your quilts and projects are stunning. Thank you for sharing your expertise

[@joaniemills1507]

Thank you for this wonderful history of your quitting. It is so wonderful and I can so relate to your journey

[@maureenmcnamee6386]

What a great interview! Many insights we can all use.

[@lilianesklenarik4119]

LOVE Helen! Funny story - when I took a class from her a few years ago, she was describing how she drew a log cabin block - because she was sure it was different than how one would piece it - we said "what do you mean?" and she said she never made a log cabin block before - just drew it. That is how non-traditional she is! Her talent is bound-less!

[@joannelendaro875]

She is amazing!!

[@paulakers2120]

Helen your work is amazing and very inspiring.

[@lisaworkman4293]

I love my sweet sixteen machine my first quilt I won a red ribbon in fair ! It was a challenge for me it was an appliqué from Maui! Then I did a stack in wack with fabric from Maui! Make lots of quilts for friends and family! thank you for this great machine!

[@leskoeb]

Thank you Helen. I learned to use my Sweet Sixteen from watching you.

[@leshaygood6054]

OK, I can’t be the only one who wants to hear Helen’s non-g-rated analogy. 😁

[@bobbinwithbrittany]

Helen is intimidatingly impressive in her work and influence in the industry. Looking forward to her fruitopia line!

[@HelenGoddenQuilts]

Thanks for that. Awesome.

[@lesliex7894]

Helen, so great to see you again. Was fortunate to have taken some of your classes and seen many of your works up close when I lived in Canberra. Still have the notes and FMQ sampler from one. Best hint I remember was when we gridded a large piece of fabric into ~8-10 inch squares and you had us doodle/FMQ within that smaller space. So much less intimidating for me. Can't wait to see your fabric line in April.

[@joettewarburton5328]

Helen, I have admired you so much for so long. How many stitches are on your Sweet 16?

[@barbdespen2745]

I've been a Helen fan for a long time, but never heard the story of how she got started in quilting. So interesting!
