The hardest part of machine quilting is knowing where to go next with your stitches. Has it kept you from finishing your quilts or caused you to quilt by checkbook? In this class, students will learn how to draw quilting motifs and how to make them work together to form a continuous pattern as outlined in Cheryl’s book, Doodle Quilting. She will cover all kinds of patterns, from simple to sublime, so there will be something for everyone to learn. Then students will practice, practice, practice to Transferring those skills to their sewing machines. Every day, Cheryl will draw from her 30 years of quilting experience to demystify continuous line quilting. Each day will include fun, informative talks and demos about helpful tools, techniques, ergonomic quilting, battings, trunk shows, and a special time of discussing how to quilt the tops brought to class, or “Stump the Quilter.” Students may work on strictly practice pieces or, if ready, work on a quilt you bring to class. Cheryl will send students an email questionnaire so she can understand your personal goals for the class and be ready with everything needed to jump right in.
