Successful Machine Quilting: Basic & Beyond Course

Many of us complete the quilt top but hesitate when it comes to quilting on our home machines. Cindy’s easy manner takes you from marking and basting to straight-line stitching and then on to continuous free-motion quilting. Feathers are included as well as turning, placement, and stitching techniques.

Learn to anchor your piece and determine the order in which things get quilted. Know which foot to use and what to do with feed dogs. Cindy Seitz-Krug also demonstrates how a large quilt can be successfully quilted on a domestic home machine.

This beginner’s class takes the mystique out of quilting on your very own sewing machine and gives you the skills you need to sew your projects from start to finish.

For your convenience, this class can be purchased for online viewing or purchased on DVD.

It turns out that mother really did know best when Cindy’s mom signed her up for a quilting class at the local community college in 1992. Known best for her machine quilting, Cindy likes to take traditional patterns and enhance them, creating a style all her own. Cindy has an impressive list of awards to her credit, including winning Best of Show with her quilt, SIMPLY SANTA FE, at the 2011 AQS QuiltWeek in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Cindy is an instructor with the AQS School of Quiltmaking. A fun fact is that Cindy has a Bachelor of Science degree in Environmental and Systematic Biology with a concentration in Fisheries Biology. For over 20 years, she and her husband owned their own aquaculture facility, raising catfish for sale to grocers and restaurants. When they can get away, Cindy and her husband, Rich, along with daughter Caitlyn and son Cameron, like to spend time in the mountains and deserts of the western United States.
