Free Motion Quilting

Take your quilts to the next level. In this class you’ll learn the basics of free motion quilting. We’ll cover the basic techniques, patterns & troubleshooting. Free Motion Quilting (FMQ for short) is quilting using a domestic sewing machine (as opposed to a long arm quilt machine) to stitch a quilt sandwich without the aid of the feed dogs.
