Do you have machine embroidery capabilities? Is your machine used frequently, now and then, or just setting there waiting for ACTION. For inspiration, brush up on the basics, delving into the technicalities, this is the class for you. Three hours with these two professional-not so alike- teachers will send you running to your machine to add wonderment to your future quilts (according to one of the teachers), or to make charming quilted projects for personal use or gift giving (according to the other teacher).
These two rarely agree on anything and each finds it important to prove their point. Of course each is always right, and you will be the winner in hearing two vastly different approaches to the subject of combining quilting and embroidery. See multiple samples of their work, everything from an appliqué on air to full size quilts, one even done in all metallic thread. A few of the subjects to be covered are: Design Choices, density, marking, placement, precision, rotation, splitting, needle test, embellishing, fabric preparation, thread types, embroidery AS the quilting, and embossing. One will show no fabric embroidery, and the other claims she will cover embroidery without thread. Say what? Embroidery without thread? Learn how this and dozens of other things are done in this brand new class at QwM.
