As you know, Quilt Mercantile takes great care of their customers and machine owners. This shop has always provided varied educational opportunities, and now, in concert with me, are offering you a Pro-Stitcher Mastery Club! In this monthly, three-hour, virtual club we will explore the tools that our Pro-Stitcher products contain. We won’t just scratch the surface either, but we’ll study in-depth, one or more features in every session and I’ll include practical applications and projects using the information, so it will be easy to retain what you learn and to use it immediately.

This is an exclusive opportunity available only to this select group. We’ll be working intimately together to hone our skills in a comfortable, creatively charged environment. I will teach you everything you need, (or want), to know about using your Pro-Stitcher products. If this challenge seems daunting, don’t fret! Between meetings, we’ll maintain our community by keeping in touch via this Facebook group where we can share our challenges and successes and help each other along. I hope to see you there! Meets: First Tuesday of each month Begins: February 2, 2021 Time: 6:00pm to 9:00pm, central time Fee: $45.00 per month Payable: Bi-monthly for February and March 2021, and then Quarterly thereafter |

At our hands on event we will have a semi-truck full of quilting frames loaded with Amara's for you to play and learn on. This is a three day event with classes designed for absolute beginners, and confident quilters alike. You do not need to own a long arm to attend. We will cover the basics and so much more. Our Friday April 23 Class, Getting Started with Longarm Quilting, is designed for the absolute beginner, traditionally someone who has always dreamed of owning a long arm but perhaps wants to start out by learning the basics including the advantages of owning a long arm (no more pin basting!) and the different types of quilting that can be done on a long arm. We all have heard about free motion quilting, what would it be like to do this with a 20' throat space? How can we get that truly custom quilted look using rulers? We are currently taking reservations for these three exciting days. Please call Birdsong Quilting, Embroidery & Crafts at our store numbers, (502 )603-8211 or (502) 603-8088 for more information and/or to reserve your spot. |
