This week’s featured project is a Jelly Roll quilt. This quilt top is possibly the the fastest quilt top you will ever make.
It uses a “jelly roll” of fabric, which is literally a roll of 2 1/2″ x 44″ strips of fabric. A roll usually has 20-40 strips.
This week we will sew the strips of fabric together.
Time to get started with machine embroidery. We will guide you through basic hooping, types of stabilizers, threads, needles and much more.
Due to issues with our on-inline reservation system, please call 734-975-4525 to reserve your spot.
In this lesson learn to use Resize and Scale within the 6D™ Embroidery Software to create the look you want in your designs. In Resize mode change the size of the embroidery and retain constant density. In Scale mode change the size of the embroidery and retain constant stitch count. Gain an understanding of the difference and when to choose the option that best suits your project.
