This is two classes in one! First you will digitize a piece of original artwork into a machine-ready applique file. Then you will get the satisfaction of embroidering it! The digitizing portion of the class will cover applique digitizing basics: this includes working with placement stitches, tack downs and cover-stitches - even working with multi-layered appliques. The second half of the class will give you the opportunity to stitch out your own design (on to a bag or object of your choosing) while using the new Bernina 790 PRO. Remember to bring your Windows laptop to class, preloaded with the FREE 30 day trail of Bernina Creator Software.

Students are encouraged to submit their design ideas to Tom before class for approval. Some design ideas might be too much to do in a short three-hour class. Just email him at tom.sewitup@gmail.com with any of your questions.
