About the Event
Have you ever wanted to try quilting your own quilt with a longarm quilting machine? We would love to show you how easy and fun it is! If you can doodle, you can free-motion quilt with our Innova longarm. Equipped with a Lightning Stitch Regulator, which makes every stitch you take look perfect, and a hydraulic lift table to make standing at the machine ergonomically correct for almost any height, you will be amazed at how simple it can be to get great results.
This class will cover all the basics of longarm machine quilting including preparing the quilt, loading the quilt on the frame, free-motion longarm quilting techniques, and maintenance of machine. Muslin will be provided for hands-on practice during class.
In addition, you will receive two free hours of longarm rental practice to be scheduled after your initial session. Please plan on completing your free practice within two weeks of your class. Once you have the approval of the instructor your certification will be good for 6 months. As long as you rent the longarm machine for 2 hours every six months, your certification will remain current.
*This class is a requirement if you want to rent the Innova longarm machine at Hello Stitch Studio. Longarm rental is $25 per hour with a minimum of two hours. (Members of Hello Stitch get a $5 discount off the hourly rate.) Longarm rental requires certification and the separate purchase of our $25 longarm kit consisting of a zipper leader (for super fast quilt loading) and two bobbins.

Supplies: Everything included
