Are you curious about Free Motion Quilting (FMQ), but not quite sure how to get started?  Then this class is for you!   It is geared for absolute beginners and those who have tried a little FMQ but got frustrated and quit. 

We will review some basic concepts during the first part of the class, including how to set up your machine and get correct tension.  This will eliminate one of the biggest barriers to learning FMQ.  Then we set up our machines and do some really easy stitching, so you can start to get a feel for how it’s done.  After a break, we’ll learn four very simple but very elegant FMQ patterns, to get you started on your FMQ journey.

This workshop is suitable for all levels of sewists, but you should have a good understanding of the operation of your sewing machine.
