We begin this year's embroidery workshop series with a home décor project. You will create a designer pillow using a Trapunto style quilt embroidery design.

Finally! Here's a way for you to get the most out of your sewing machine with the Stitcher's Garden Block of the Month club. You'll explore the different decorative stitches on your machine and even get to use something other than the 1/4" foot! This project can be completed using any brand and any model of machine.

Each month during the lecture/demo you will learn new appliqué techniques and accessory feet (some techniques will require the purchase of specialty feet) and get the fabric and instructions for a new quilt block. The registration fee includes the background fabric, all the appliqué fabrics for each month's block and instruction sheets. At the end of the year you will have stitched out a beautiful appliquéd quilt measuring 85" x 93". Meets 1st Saturday each month.
