Date: Friday, Sept. 13^th
Time: 9am – 12pm
Place: Pennsylvania National Quilt Extravaganza
Greater Philadelphia Expo Center

Create an ITH (in-the-hoop) needle holder case. Perfect for sorting all of your loose needles in-between various projects. Learn the following techniques: applique, attaching hidden snaps, pathing when digitizing to have the least number of trims, best practices when using metallic threads, how to add backing/lining to in-the-hoop projects, and piecing multiple layers of fabric together with correct registration. When completed, this project measures 5” w x 6” h.

{You need to know the basics on how to operate your machine for embroidery such as turning on your machine, threading the machine, winding & loading bobbin. This class will teach embroidery theory and techniques NOT how to fully operate your machine. Make sure to bring your user manual.}
