1-Day Workshops

This class is designed for people who have never done any machine quilting before or those who would like a refresher course. To begin with, we will have a brief discussion on threads, needles, batting, and quilting feet. Then we will learn to use a walking foot for straight line foundation quilting and decorative quilting. After that, we will move on to extensive coverage of free motion continuous line designs, feathers, and stippling. You will also learn how to handle large quilts on your domestic sewing machine. This class will give you the confidence and skills to finally quilt your own quilts on your home sewing machine!

No experience necessary for this class.

This class teaches students how to incorporate trapunto into their quilts to really make them POP! Hari Walner’s method of “Trapunto by Machine” is what I will teach. It is very simple, and quite fun. Students will leave the class excited and anxious to go home and try out their newly learned technique on their own quilts.

A basic understanding of machine quilting is helpful for this class.

In this class, students get a quick lesson on free motion quilting of feathers and basic trapunto skills. After learning the basics and practicing on a sample square, students will mark their t-shirt, and then add the trapunto, and finally finish it up with the quilting stitches. Students go home with a finished project!

A basic understanding of machine quilting is helpful for this class but not absolutely necessary.
