Machine Quilting Primer

If you love to make quilts, you know there is always the point at which you ask: How am I going to quilt this?

So here is a simple Primer (4 page PDF available below) on machine quilting with info on both walking foot and free motion quilting. The short version of this PDF is just one word: PRACTICE!

Machine quilting on a domestic machine is a learned skill and needs to be worked at. Make charity quilts, make table runners, make kids quilts or make dog quilts to improve your skill. Keep at it and you will get better.
There is also a list of long arm quilters on the pages including contact info for north OC, Ca quilters Cindy Kruse, Diane Beauchamp and Georgia Heidrick. By way of update, please add Jami Goto who works out of Calico House in Placentia/Yorba Linda. Jami does wonderful work and has, along with Cindy Kruse, quilted many of my published quilts.

Class Members:  If you have a great Long armer who is not on this list, please bring their info to class to share.  Thanks!

The best part of this Primer is the Machine Quilting Checklist which gives a comprehensive overview of the things you need to know and do before starting any domestic machine quilting project.
