No Mess, No Fuss Appliqué Classes

No Mess, No Fuss Appliqué Classes

This is a hand appliqué class devoted to using a specific and unique appliqué method taught by Glenda. This appliqué method DOES NOT use freezer paper, glue, templates, hemostats, or overlays -- hence the name "No Mess, No Fuss Appliqué". This method is highly portable and able to fit into a baggie in your purse. Please see the “APPLIQUE 2011” projects on Glenda’s website.

Come and Learn Free Motion Quilting



FMQ 1 - “Focus On Free-Motion Quilting”
FMQ
This is a beginning free-motion machine class where you will learn to master your sewing machine as you “teach” it to follow your lead. Free-motion quilting is absolutely wonderful for finishing quilts or decorating wearable art, plus this class can be considered an introduction to one of the methods used in thread painting. Stitches and ideas for using this method are endless, so let your imagination go. Although no FMQ skills are required, intermediate machine skills are suggested.
