September 2, 2021, Pro-Stitcher Designer: Picture Perfect Quilts
September 2, 2021 @ 1:30 pm - 5:00 pm CDT
$60.00
Quilters, how often do you excitedly load a quilt only to stand before the machine sifting through digital designs looking for inspiration? What about stitching one pattern here and another there, to discover that those designs don’t work well together? I can help you solve those problems, and more!
When I say “Picture perfect quilts every time!”, I mean it! This September 2, join me for a fun and productive approach to creating quilt layouts using Pro-Stitcher Designer! In this half-day course, I’ll teach you all the skills needed to audition quilting designs over photographs of your quilt-tops, giving you greater confidence than ever when it’s time to stitch!
Following a brief refresher of PSD’s Edit Tools, you’ll learn to acquire photos of your quilts, and to import them to PSD for use as backdrops. Then, I’ll show you how to create an entire series of quilting designs all from one pattern using the Draw and Edit tools!
Seeing an illustration of your finished quilt on the computer screen, right down to the thread color, will make your quilt-confidence soar, and that stack of unfinished quilt tops will quickly disappear.
Quilting and photography could hardly be more different, but they do have something essential in common — turning memories into something you can hold. When two disciplines work together to achieve the same end, the results are stunning to behold!
Prerequisite:
Students must have a working knowledge of Pro-Stitcher Designer’s Draw and Edit Tools. My two-day course “Pro-Stitcher Designer – Everything You Need”, followed by a several hours of practice is the perfect way to prepare.
