Welcome to the Longarm club!
About this Club:
Do you enjoy working with your longarm quilter? Do you enjoy talking about techniques and styles you use? Would you enjoy learning new aspects of your machine and growing in ideas and skills? Then this club is for you!
During this hour-long time, we will be dividing it up between three sections:
- Community resources, & Questions and Answers
- During this time people can ask questions about problems or struggles they are having, whether it be threads, batting, (or maybe customers, lol) and we can share ideas for how to remedy them
- Maybe you have a gadget or tool that you really like or recently found and want to bring it along to show others
- Class Time
- During this section, we will be teaching something different every month for the next 12 months
- Everything from Tensions, to rulers, to different feet, to unique techniques!
- While we will be teaching on Handi Quilter machines, we will also try to make this class as applicable to all brands of machines so that it will benefit everyone!
- During this section, we will be teaching something different every month for the next 12 months
- Show and Tell, & How Should I Quilt This?
- Bring along one or two of your recent projects to share with the group
- Or if you have a quilt top that you are not sure how to quilt it, bring it along and we can use the Quilter’s Preview Paper to help develop ideas about ways to quilt it nicely!
This “club” is FREE and open to owners of any Longarm brand!
There is no need to register, just come! And we’ll look forward to seeing you then!
