Do you want to learn how to free motion quilt the Dream Big panel by Hoffman Fabrics? Join the Free Motion Quilt Along and we’ll show you how!
I’ve partnered with Shereece Spain of Sew Hooked on Treasures to bring you a seven week free motion quilting challenge beginning August 2 – September 18, 2021.
Registration is totally FREE! All you need to purchase is your Dream Big panel. Register HERE and let us know you’re in.
We’ll be learning free motion techniques on domestic and long arm machines. The same skills can be done on either type of machine, so you won’t be left out regardless of what type of machine the instructor is using.
Our talented instructors on this seven week journey include: Tina Curtis, Stephanie Harris, Jen Frost, Helen Ernst and Kelly Ashton. Each week you will receive an email with a link to a tutorial for the current lesson. The instructors break it down into manageable pieces. And yes, we are including feathers! We will also be having weekly giveaways provided by our fabulous sponsors! Don’t wait, Register for free today.
Make sure you are following me and Sew Hooked on Treasures and all of the instructors on Instagram to stay current on everyone’s progress! I’ve provided links straight to everyone’s page. Use the hashtag #DREAMBIGQAL
