Traveling Class
Descriptions
Beginning
Longarm Quilting
In this one-day, lecture, demonstration and hands on class you will
learn the basics of Longarm machine quilting. You will learn how to
put the backing, batting and top onto the quilting machine, use the
laser/stylus to create a turned border with corners and make block
patterns. You will also learn how to do stitch in the ditch, simple
free motion patterns and the basics of edge to edge (pantograph)
patterns. If time allows, I will show you how to create Baptist Fans
and other patterns using acrylic circle templates.
I
will also tell you how I run my Longarm Machine quilting business –
pricing, scheduling, keeping track of customer quilts, work forms and
invoices and much, much more. There is also ample time for questions,
answers and networking.
Beyond the Basics – Free Hand Sampler
Free hand designs are fun and easy to do and will give your quilting a
very “custom” look. In this hands on class you will learn work on a
quilting sampler using over 20 different free hand patterns, including
feathers and feather variations, different stippling and fill-in
patterns, and many more designs. We will also discuss and create
“overall” free hand patterns. We will also talk about and play with
specialty threads. As always, there is plenty of time for questions,
answers and networking.
The basis of
this class is the book
Free Hand Sampler by Cindy Roth. Each person
attending this class receives a copy of this book.
Beyond the Basics – Free Hand Feather Workshop
Everyone loves feathers! But feathers, although beautiful, can
sometimes be the “problem child” of the quilting world. In this all
day workshop you will learn about all types of feathers. We will work
on feather wreaths of all types including circular wreaths, oval
wreaths and heart wreaths. You will also learn how to use templates as
the feather’s “spine” and several different and unique feather borders
and corners. Cindy will also show you the easy way to make the elegant
feathered Baptist Fans. You will be seeing feathers in your sleep
and making beautiful and easy feathers on your quilts.
