Description of the workshop:
It is hard to squeeze in a big quilt through the opening of a sewing machine but you don't want to pay a huge amount of money to have your quilt professionally done. The solution is to quilt section by section and then assembling your quilt. Have no fear! These techniques will make it possible to quilt your own quilt! Bonus: you will have the satisfaction of completing your own quilt from beginning to end.
In this workshop, you will learn the advantages of each of 7 QAYG techniques, how to choose the best technique to achieve the results you want, how to adapt a regular pattern into a QAYG and get stunning results.
At the end of this workshop, you will have made a sample of each of the techniques so that you can make a binder for future reference.
