Design It, Quilt It: Free-Form Techniques

Take your pieced or whole-cloth quilts from beautiful to spectacular with free-form machine quilting. Award-winning quilting instructor Cindy Needham shares her tips for quilting from the inside out – starting with gourmet batting, basting, and a refresher on thread tension and making quilting lines, then advancing to designs and fillers that will make your quilt tops pop. Cindy will show you ways to divide and conquer the space to create a quilting design that’s uniquely yours. Start out with stencils, deconstructing them to create original patterns. Explore medallion-based designs and then go on to freeform elements – including feathers, fillers, and repeating motifs you can use to highlight your quilt with beautiful areas of sunshine and shadow.
