Turn an embroidery machine into a quilting machine. This class will show you how to do that, including where to get designs, how to size designs to fit your project, how to hoop and connect patterns, and how to do borders.
The first part of the class will be constructing the blocks and putting together the quilt top. Then, the second and third parts of class we will move to embroidery and completely quilt your quilt top using edge-to-edge quilting for the body of the quilt, followed by border patterns to quilt the borders.
Even if you have a long arm, this is a great way to do smaller projects. Plus, quilting borders are so easy with the embroidery machine that you won’t wanna do borders any other way! This method of machine quilting is something you will want to do repeatedly. As a bonus, get to test drive the latest embroidery and quilting technology from Brother with the help of LuAnn and the team from Tops.
