And here’s what QA/IW says about the live Web Seminar:

Want to know how to machine quilt? Join artist Sarah Ann Smith for an informative webinar on Thursday, September 5, at 12p.m. EST. Learn the fundamentals of the quilting process!
 
Sarah will cover a range of helpful topics:
  • Preparing your workstation and tools for an effective quilting session
  • Which needles and thread are best for specific projects
  • Proper sewing machine tension
  • How to baste a quilt in order to get smooth, even layers
  • Practicing good ergonomics so you’re comfortable while you’re quilting
  • Making sure your vision is in good standing to accurately see your projects and workstation
  • And more!

Practice makes perfect, and machine quilting is no exception. Sarah will not only run you through the elements of this process, but she will also encourage you to be comfortable with your beginner status. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to learn machine quilting techniques from the start!

Don’t worry if you can’t tune in on the 5th!  The Seminar is recorded and you can listen in at any time at your convenience.  To learn about how this works (you’ll need an internet connection for your computer or tablet), visit the hotlink above.

There will be more links and information in the coming days.  There is already something on FaceBook!
