Free Motion and Ruler Sampler-Workshop with Sarah Thomas of SARIDITTY. Saturday 2/15 10am - 4pm

FMQ CLASS Have you always wanted to free-motion quilt but were too anxious to do so? Join Sarah in this hands-on workshop and be liberated with free-motion quilting! With a bit of humor and a lot of encouragement, she will take you through a series of designs to build up your own unique edge-to-edge patterns that are both simple yet highly effective on your quilt tops. By the end of the workshop, you will feel more comfortable and brave with a variety of shapes and designs in different sizes. RULER SAMPLER CLASS Join Sarah in this ruler work class where you'll be provided with a pre-printed panel and various rulers to create your own quilted Star Blossom flower. You will work specifically with arcs, pebbles, a wave, a lotus petal, and have a slew of other ruler shapes at your disposal to make your panel uniquely yours. Sarah will share tips and tricks for using rulers to help highlight free motion designs and/or to take center stage with accurate and precisely-placed ruler quilting. Thread, fabric, batting, and ruler use will be provided in the class fee. Additional panels and ruler kits will be available to take home with you. You will be working on a BERNINA Q-series machine. Whether you are a stand up longarmer, a sitdown quilter, or a domestic quilter, and have an understanding of ruler use, this class is perfect for you! Bonus...you'll go home with a pattern from Sarah to turn your pre-printed panel into a handy flat folio tote bag!
