Straight Line Quilting Class

Description:
Ready to elevate your machine quilting skills? Join us for this focused half-day workshop on Straight Line Quilting, designed to help quilters of all levels gain confidence with this versatile and modern quilting technique. Straight line quilting is an excellent way to add structure, texture, and visual interest to quilt tops using your sewing machine.

In this hands-on session, students will practice a variety of straight line quilting approaches while learning techniques that improve stitch quality and control. You’ll work on two pre-basted 16" x 16" quilt sandwiches, allowing you to explore different line patterns and spacing methods in a supportive, low-pressure environment.

What You’ll Learn:

• Marking methods and spacing techniques for straight line quilting

• Best practices for managing bulk and maintaining stitch quality

• The benefits of using a walking foot

• Tips for troubleshooting common straight line quilting issues

Whether you’re new to machine quilting or looking to refine your technique, this workshop offers practical skills you can apply to many quilting projects.
