In this 3 day class you will learn a technique in the morning and maybe 1 or 2 in the afternoon. Just think 9 different ways to do exciting and new techniques on your Brother sewing/ embroidery machine. Some of them are origami, free motion couching and controlled couching, flip flop pin tucks and Mexican tucks, layered and reverse appliqué, waved piping, Bargello & Kaleido structures, and many more. Bring your machine & embroidery unit, all the feet that you own.

Don't own an embroidery machine? We will provide one for the class so that you can complete the project.

Supplies needed

We will provide: Heavy threads and yarn for couching, Krinkle Magic for one of the Origami items, Designs to use the Krinkle Magic, Templates to use for the second Origami design, Piping cord, and Steam a Seam Lite.
