Techniques Workshop - Beginning Machine Embroidery (Singer, Viking & Pfaff)



Just start embroidering with a machine? Come join us for a fun, new series to learn the BASICS of machine embroidery! You will experience many different techniques in a short period of time. Not only will you learn the basic techniques, but also the types of stabilizers, toppers and needles you will need to use. This is a QUICK START workshop for those of you that are just beginning. We will work strictly on the embroidery machine. No computers are needed -- all designs will be made in class and provided to you.
