Free Motion Machine Sketching: Drawing with Thread from Birds to Botanicals
“Free-Motion Machine Sketching” is a 74 minute DVD, filmed on the set of Quilting Arts TV. In it, I teach you how to Free-Motion Machine Sketch lots of my favorite motifs, show you how I came up with those motifs so that you can design your own, and show you how to create fabric sketchbooks to try out new color palettes and record your early free-motion machine sketches!
You’ll love this DVD workshop if:
- You enjoy machine quilting
- You are interested in learning new ways to experiment with your sewing machine
- You love creating art quilts
Free-motion machine sketching is a combination of thread sketching and machine quilting that results in charming drawings and motifs on fabric. I developed this technique after much experimentation, and have taught many quilters how to look at their sewing machine as a tool for drawing and sketching. Find it on the Interweave shop as either a DVD or a download
Dyeing to Stitch: A Comprehensive Guide to Creating Colorful Fabric Art
