BASICS: Long Arm Quilter

BASICS: Long Arm Quilter with instructor Johanna

This Basics class will run approx 1 hours and is designed to cover the foundational knowledge needed to use the equipment detailed.

Longarm quilting at LMS is the process of using a large, industrial-sized sewing machine mounted on a 10ft frame to stitch together a quilt top, batting, and backing into a finished quilt. Unlike domestic sewing, the user moves the machine across a stationary quilt, allowing for faster quilting of large projects

What you will learn in this class:

• Overview of machine and parts
• Compatible materials and thread types
• How to load the machine
• How to thread the machine and bobbin
• Importance of tension
• Basic stitching for your quilt

Members who complete this BASICS course will be considered proficent and may use the Longarm Quilter during open hours.
