QUILTING WITH A WALKING FOOT
In this workshop, I will be showing you how to quilt with a walking foot, giving you many designs and ideas for making up your own designs for later use. I will show you how to do some of those designs. I will teach you about stitch lengths and methods on how to start with a straight line. Some of you will go on to use these designs when you are quilting on your domestic machine but hopefully, you will all leave knowing how to at least quilt a placemat, a table runner and even bags.
