FREE MOTION QUILTING ON YOUR DOMESTIC MACHINE
Learn the basics of Free Motion Quilting on your domestic sewing machine! This class/workshop will include the following:
- . What threads and needles work best for your machine
- . Working with cotton/poly batting and all poly batting
- . Marking your quilt and marking tools
- . Learn hand & machine stitch co-ordination -------machine tension
- . Practice the Stippling design
- . Practice the “L” & “E” designs
- . Practice the “Teardrop” design
- . Practice the “Swirl” design
- . Practice the “Basket Weave” design
All of these practice designs will be done on practice quilt sandwiches. Once you have learned how to complete some of these designs and feel confident enough to quilt, you can start quilting on a sample project that you bring from home!
You will need a machine that allows you to drop the feed dogs. You will need the darning foot or hopping foot for your machine. For the Basket Weave design you will need a walking foot. A complete supply list will be sent to you when you register with me.
This will be a work at your own pace class! If we have time for more involved designs, we will try them out!
Skill Level: Beginner Machine Quilter ---- You do need to know how to use your machine!!
Won't it be great to quilt your own quilts!! Come join us for a good time!
