Our first class and machine technique has come and gone. If you missed it don't fret, you can make a personal appointment (for free) and I will get you caught up. Then you will be ready to join in our project for October.
This class will be held September 16, 2024 from 12 to 4 pm.
If you missed the class on August 5, 2024, don't fret, in this lesson we will be covering a lot of the same concepts so you will not need an individual session to tackle this project.
This month we will tackle how to create and embroider a towel.
In this beginner session you will learn how to create an embroidery from a png, bmp or jpeg clip art. We will resize it, set the stitch patterns, prepare the knockdown and basting stitches, save it and transfer it to the machine. You will also receive instruction on how to do a quick monogram on a towel (great for a quick wedding gift)
