QuiltTastic 2-Day Embroidery and Software Event

Quilters need embroidery too!  Take your quilting projects to the next level by creating stunning machine embroidered quilt blocks.  See how easy mySewnet Embroidery Software is at bringing your visions to life.  Make your own quilt designs, applique, and so much more.

More and more quilters are adding embroidery to their quilts and then finishing by quilting in their embroidery hoops!  Let’s dive in and create some embroidery squares and quilting designs and see how fun it is to create unique designs for a quilt. 

Day 1
Get ready to create a “Quilt As You Go” table runner as you spend the day on a Husqvarna Viking Designer Ruby 90 Sewing and Embroidery Machine!  Experience how easy it is to quilt in the hoop.  Plus, you will have a blast adding embroidery to your quilting creation.  The techniques you learn while making this fun, small project can easily be applied to your larger quilts. 

Day 2
The second day you will explore multiple elements of the mySewnet Embroidery Software, including creating blocks and quilting in the hoop. You will learn how the designs you used on your table runner were created in software.  This is a hands-on class with your own laptop.  You won’t believe how simple it is to create using the software wizards.  Yes you can!

Supplies Needed:

• Laptop computer – Windows or Mac (Tablets and Chrome books are not supported)
• Power cord
• Mouse
• USB stick
• Basic sewing supplies.

Class Guidelines

• Emma’s Quilt Cupboard & Sewing Center maintains a strong commitment to education and expanding your quilting skills and knowledge. Because of this, our promise to you is to NEVER cancel a class, regardless of the number of people who have signed up. 
• Emma’s Quilt Cupboard & Sewing Center offers a 10% discount for all project classes (excludes weekly or ongoing classes). This discount applies to all fabric, books/patterns, and class-specific supplies that you purchase for class (i.e., specialty rulers).  Basic sewing supplies and tools are not included. 
• Please note that we have a refrigerator and microwave in the shop’s kitchen. Feel free to use them for your lunch or snack. 
• You will only be “officially” signed up for a class when payment has been received. You can sign up for a class on the website, over the phone, in person at the shop, or by mail, using a credit card, cash, or check. 
• Our goal is to provide sufficient time during class for you to complete your class projects or to learn a specific technique. However, please remember that some classes may require homework or “catch up” for less-experienced quilters.
• A supply list will be provided for each class. Please have your fabrics and supplies assembled/purchased before the class so that we may start on time.  Anyone at the shop will be happy to help you with your fabric selections if you would find that useful.  Basic supplies for a quilting class include a sewing machine, cutting mat, rotary cutter, ruler, and basic sewing kit (scissors, seam ripper, pins, etc.).
• Each student must have a legal copy of the class pattern or book to participate.  No photocopies or sharing of books or patterns is allowed in class to ensure we do not violate any copyright laws.
• Refunds for classes will be given with a minimum of 1-week’s advance notice. Should you withdraw from a class with less than 1-week’s notice, we will issue a store credit, providing we receive at least 24 hours’ notice.
• Please note for all machine classes: please bring your sewing machine in good working order and be familiar with its basic functions (e.g., threading the machine, changing the needle, needle position adjustment, and stitch length).  While we will do our best to help you with any problems, we are not familiar with all machines.  Therefore, it is important that you have a thorough working knowledge of your machine.  Remember your foot pedal and power cord!
• Please turn off your cell phone, pager, or other electronic devices.  If you must take a call, please leave the classroom to do so.
• Many people are allergic to fragrance.  Please refrain from wearing perfume to class.
