LABEL MAKING WITH YOUR COMPUTER:
Labels are the crowning glory to any quilt; they tell the story of the quilt so future generations will know more about the quilt and its maker. Quilt labels can be brief with name and date, or they can tell a story or even a special poem. In this 2-hour class we'll learn how to use our computers to create some beautiful labels.

Go to https://mysewfab.com/module/class/509583/label-making-with-your-computer for more details and to sign up.

  • Learning how to cut fabrics using a rotary cutter & acrylic ruler
  • Learning raw-edge applique with machine techniques
  • Perfecting the 1/4" seam
  • Much more

The online course is free and can be viewed as often as you like. When you sign up for this course, you'll get personalized attention to answer questions and we'll provide insight on the construction of this fun quilt.
