Allison Spence With Meadow Rose Quits https://www.meadowrosequilts.com/ will be sharing her expertise and experience to teach free motion quilting on a domestic machine
Free Motion Quilting – Let’s Get Started. Spend the morning learning the basics of 5 shapes that make up all FMQ designs and the foundation for all future FMQ. We’ll cover the basic mechanics of FMQ, and how to stitch the 5 basic shapes. We’ll then take what we’ve learned and put these shapes together into a variety of unique quilting motifs. We’ll spend the rest of the day working on your small quilting project and put into practice what you learned in the morning.

How to prepare and layer your quilt
How to set up your machine for Free Motion Quilting
