Chisholm Trail Quilt Guild

The next meeting is Tuesday November 5, 2024 at 10:00 am at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 218 Serenada Drive, Georgetown, TX.

The November meeting is Move into Quilting: 6 Basic Shapes by RaNea Merrill.

Did you know only six basic shapes make the building blocks of all free-motion quilting patterns? Learn them with my fun and easy "quilting yoga" moves that tie into movements your body already knows and instantly get you into the quilting groove! Then, learn how to combine these six shapes to create any quilting design. Quilters of all levels can use this technique for either domestic or longarm machines. Based on my book Free-Motion Mastery in a Month: A Block a Day to Machine Quilting Success.

Quantum Leap with educator RaNae Merrill of RaNae Merrill Quilt Design on Wednesday, November 6 at 9:30 am.

In person at Austin Sewing Machines and Quilting, Round Rock, TX.

Want to learn to do free-motion quilting but don’t know where to start? Can you do a few simple patterns but you want to expand your creativity? Have you taken other classes and failed? Are you afraid you’ll ruin that beautiful top you spent weeks piecing? This is the class for you! RaNae's unique teaching system and specialized tools guide you step-by-step through simple exercises that will get you moving comfortably at the sewing machine and build your quilting skills as you quilt one block at a time. You'll make a quantum leap in your FMQ skills during the class and go home with a practice plan to continue building your skills. You'll leave class saying "I can DO this!"
