Free Motion Journey

Want to learn to free motion quilt using your domestic sewing machine?  Each class session will examine a new free-motion stitching pattern/design to add to your free-motion sampler!! This class is taught once per month, and focuses on free-motion quilting using your domestic sewing machine!  Even though this class is designed for domestic sewing machines, these skills are easily transferred to a sit-down free-motion quilting machine!!

You'll learn one technique per month.  Practice the new technique using a homework kit! Then, bring back your completed work, before moving on to the next design!  Students can sign up at any point and learn to free-motion. 

Besides being an essential skill these days, free-motion quilting on your own machine can be a ton of fun!

• Sewing Machine with basic sewing/quilting kit
