Description
Join our very own inspirational Linzi Upton, award-winning longarm quilter, for a fun and creative one-day workshop exploring the possibilities of freemotion quilting, decorative stitching and your sewing machine’s built-in embroidery stitches.
Under Linzi’s expert guidance, you’ll create a beautiful, personalised freemotion quilted and embroidered cover for a hardback notebook — a wonderful keepsake for yourself or a thoughtful handmade gift for someone special.
Explore, experiment & create
Throughout the day, Linzi will encourage you to experiment with different techniques, threads, stitches and accessories, helping you discover just how much creative potential is hiding inside you and your sewing machine.
You’ll have the opportunity to explore a selection of specialist BERNINA accessories, including the Button Sew-On Foot #18, Circular Embroidery Attachment #83 and Eyelet Embroidery Set #82 with Eyelet Foot #92, using them to create fabulous decorative stitching, circular designs and cutwork-inspired effects.
Combine these techniques with freemotion quilting to build texture, pattern and personality into your fabric.
No two notebook covers need ever be the same - this is your opportunity to play, experiment and create something completely original.
