FULL THAT PERFECT STITCH - Didi McElroy:
This is the most in-depth hand quilting class currently offered. A complete
review of all products used in the
quiltmaking
process is given. The kinds of products you choose can directly affect your hand
quilting stitches. We will break the hand quilting stitch down into specific
movements. The act of hand quilting should be fairly rapid, completely painless
and very rewarding. If it is not all three of these for you, That Perfect Stitch
can help! Even expert
quilters can learn something new! Kit fee of $25 includes hand-marked muslin top
(choice of 6 designs), matching backing,
Mountain Mist Quilt Light batting, 2 Roxanne #10 between quilt needles, Roxanne
basting needle, and 1 spool of YLI 100% cotton quilting thread. The products
provided have tested to be the best currently available. SUPPLIES: 14" quilt
hoop (hoops on stands are nice), small pair of scissors, basting thread,
note-taking materials. Optional: Ott light & That Perfect Stitch book by
