Description

This class is made with the beginner in mind, This is Class 1 in a 4 part Master Class series that takes you from “I don’t know what materials to use when I am free motion quilting”, to, “I can custom quilt anything!” Built to help you learn as much as possible as quickly as possible. So often we begin this journey and look for inspiration Everywhere, grab tidbits of information as we can find them. This results in our learning the puzzle that is free motion quilting out of order and it’s hard to see the full picture when we aren’t able to have all the pieces. I know sounds confusing right? well it can be! But never fear! I have compiled a 4 part class series that walks you through the steps you need to BUILD YOUR SKILL one learning block at a time.  see the details below for full class explanation.

    I learnt so many of the basics from thread to batting to basic fills! It is a reference I use continually. I would recomend it to all level of quilters!

    I’m an intermediate quilter, but this class was worth it for the batting unit alone! I’ve never seen such comprehensive info on batting in a course! Lauren also had great info on tension and causes of skipped stitches that was extremely useful. There was also really help for info about what fabrics and batting’s can help or hinder stabilizing a wall hanging’.

  4. My Green envy Bags –

    I like her teaching style. She makes it easy to understand and follow along. I can watch this at my own pace when I have time to watch it. Will buy other courses from Lauren.
