Machine Quilting * via *Zoom and *Face to Face (2 parts)

Skill Builder Format: Machine Quilting
Experience Needed: Must know your machine
Format: ZOOM or Face-to-Face
Lecture/Demo/Skills Lab

One of the most feared parts of making a quilt is the quilting. New sewing machine features makes it easier than ever to achieve awesome results with much less practice!

Here are just a few of the things we will discuss in this class that will make quilting much less scary. What batting do I choose? What thread is best? How should that thread spool off through my machine? How do I hold my layers together? How do I mark my quilt? How do I set-up my machine for straight line quilting and free motion quilting? How do I achieve a consistent stitch length if my feed dogs are down?
