Festival of Quilts Workshops
Strip by Strip: The Ultimate Thread Bag
Who is it for?
Handi Quilter owners who would like to learn how to piece and quilt at the same time on their Longarm.
Unlock the full potential of your longarm with a project that is as practical as it is creative. The "Ultimate Thread Bag" is the perfect skill-builder, designed to boost confidence for current Handi Quilter owners and offer a "deep dive" for those exploring the world of longarm quilting.
In this fun, fast-paced class, we reinvent traditional quilt-making. You will learn how to piece directly onto the backing and wadding using a "Quilt-As-You-Go" strip piecing method, finishing the project with beautiful free-motion techniques—all while the project is still on the frame!
What You’ll Learn:
- The Strip-Piecing Revolution: How to piece and quilt simultaneously directly on the longarm frame.
- Precision Free-Motion: Techniques to add texture and professional finishes to your projects.
- On-Frame Binding: Our "secret sauce" for completing your binding without leaving the machine.
- Efficiency Tips: How to turn "scraps into treasures" using quick and easy workflows.
Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting your journey, there’s something for everyone in this project. Let’s get quilting!
