Why So Many Attend A Machine Quilting Show
|
| |
|
This year is no exception....the quilts just keep getting better and better. Whether they are on display or on your bed, machine quilters are improving their techniques and skill by attending. Even if you don't take one class, am not sure that is even possible with all the incredible offerings, you will return home inspired.
There are many reasons to attend a show which are very conveniently located across the country. First you may want a specific instructor, or a specific machine quilting class that will be offered there and no where else. Also, you may finally say, this is my year to attend a machine quilting conference to see what is new from all the wonderful vendors. Or, maybe you just want to be inspired...and it will happen.
You can also enter your work and win fabulous prize money in many catagories, which is so generously offered by each event.
Hope this has inspired you to plan to attend a machine quilting show sometime soon. Besides, there are usually a few openings in many classes if you will be registering at the last minute. Sometimes there are classes already purchased and available from an individual, along with free demonstrations, that really helps your budget. And many vendors offer products with event sale pricing. Plus, don't forget there are roommate connections and ride shares available, too.
Listen to all the audios about the shows located on the home page at www.sallyterry.com. Call a fellow machine quilter and make plans. See you there...sally

"Thank you, Sally, for including me in your mailing. I recently had a LA student who needed to freemotion-quilt a gorgeous winter/snowman top she'd made...there were 2 borders made of 2.5" squares...perfect for your Terry Twist, right? Well, she got so excited about them that when she completed a major portion non-stop she did a little jig, arms waving in the air and all! Thanks for these simple yet stunning methods for completing our quilts...she'd just figured she'd ditch them...sooooooooooo boring, eh?" Sharon
"A little hard to grasp the concept at first, but when it kicked in it was AMAZING!" HMQS student, Hooked on Feathers Class
"Great class. I am amazed that I can do what she shows us. Practical uses, easy transfer of technique for various kinds of quilts, borders, sashing, blocks, etc. Thanks!" HMQS student, Hooked on Feathers Class
