Thread Play and Thrilling Threads Project
A MUST for all quilters! This class is a hands-on workshop which includes an innovative method developing a Thread Journal® to practice sample stitches and new threads. Practicing and using threads during Thread Play explains in detail the differences and relationships between sewing machine settings, needles, and threads. All quilters will learn to develop their own Thread Journal®. The act of actually using a variety of Specialty threads and creating the Thread Journal® for reference, helps the quilter diagnose and solve 95% (yes, 95%) of all problems faced with machines on a daily basis. Shawnee will also share her years of knowledge of machine maintenance in a simple and understandable explanation of basic machine procedures and thread information, which all quilters should use, but don't really understand. This class will affect every item you sew and every quilt you make from this point on while learning how to tame those specialty threads we love to hate!.
Each quilter will have fun putting into use multiple types of threads, and leave with a completed thread-intensive project. This project workshop incorporates many thread elements into the project which reinforces all the information learned and helps retain the skills learned. Shawnee provides the complete kit including all supplies and thread. You will also receive extensive invaluable hand-outs.
