Fussy Cut and Free Motion Class








Today I taught an all day class at Sew N Sew in Glendora, California.  We had sew much fun! Just take a look at a few images that I took during class. The ladies all learned a few things and each project looked different from their neighbors.

First time doing free motion and she concurs the task.

Designing from 10" squares works for Bunnies background



Smiles continue as the class progresses.

Using a pressing sheet sure protects our iron

The green poly thread really adds a nice element

It's a graduating class! Great job ladies.
Tips from class to help when doing free motion and fussy cutting applique:
Using a 90/14 top stitching needle for free motion
Tension may need to be adjusted for the free motion
No rules in this class - anything goes
Use many thread weights and colors to create texture
If you like texture add a bit of yarn couching
Don't beat yourself up! 
Thanks for attending class with us at Sew N Sew.
