If you are new to machine embroidery or just need more help to stitch successful projects, this class is for you.

Machine embroidery can be super fun, but also can produce sub-par results. In this class you will learn a “Recipe” containing the basic ingredients of machine embroidery. Each ingredient varies according to the project, but in the right combination, will ensure that your embroidery produces a beautiful result.

Join us to learn Mary’s recipe for success with machine embroidery. No matter what embroidery machine you own, you will learn to select the ingredients for a successful embroidery. The recipe includes: Fabric, Design, Stabilizer, Hooping, Thread, and Needle. During the class, students will stitch out 2 designs on kitchen towels. The designs feature lettering and appliques and were created by the instructor for this class.
