Now that you have finished your quilt top, you’re ready for the next step–quilting!  But do you often feel a bit unsure about how to quilt your beautiful work?  In the worst cases, you can suffer from a feeling of decision paralysis, often leading to another dreadful condition: project abandonment!   

 

Have no fear–Dr. Linda is in the house!  In this fun, informative, and dare we say, therapeutic, workshop, you’ll enjoy some group therapy before sitting down to practice a variety of techniques.

 

Each participant should bring in a completed (or nearly so) quilt top for analysis and discussion.  Don’t worry, you won’t be using your own quilt for practice!  We’ll take care of that for you.  Your kit will include a sample quilt sandwich large enough for practicing a variety of suggested techniques.   

 

You’ll leave this class feeling better about quilting than you have in a long time!

 

Bring your own quilt; see supply list for details.

 

Note: Two students will share a machine, so sign-up with a friend or make a new one in class when you join the fun! You'll be surprised at how much you'll learn between turns at the machine.
