   Kimberbell Embroidery Club - Tuesday, October 31

Multiple dates available
This is the year to get those quilt tops out of the closet!  This class will certify you to operate the Q24 longarm for in-store rental!  We will cover the basics on how to operate the machine for free-motion, ruler-work, and pantograph.  You will learn how to properly maintain the machine, thread the machine and wind bobbin.  All materials will be provided. 
This certification class will allow you to rent time on our Q24 for free-motion quilting, which includes pantograph tracing and ruler-work.  A second certification class is required for use of the Q-Matic - this is a prerequisite for the second class.

  Flanged Binding - Tuesday, Nov 7
This instructive workshop will give you the choice of two different styles of two fabrics with which to bind your finished quilt. The first, with instructions from Missouri Star Quilt's Ginny's YouTube, is about 3/4" wide. Working with those measurements, Sandra worked out a more standard 3/8" binding, which will not cut off the corners of any points you've worked so hard to keep. You will learn the cutting, sewing, pressing and finishing of the binding, with help on the corners and the turning to end up with perfect corners. Sandra will also mention the method used to make the multi-color contrast border on the store example. If anybody wants the instructions on this 4-patch batik quilt in the store, she'd be glad to give a hand-out about it. This is a very attractive way to finish a quilt AND, mind you, it's all done by MACHINE, no hand hemming!
