Sue taught beautifully how to stitch in the ditch and how to fold a big quilt to quilt it on a domestic sewing machine. Very helpful class.

The demonstration and explanations are very helpful and informative. I previously used hand quilting on the quilts I've made and have been tempted but hesitant to try machine quilting. This class has provided the encouragement and confidence to try machine quilting.

It was great. so good to refresh my memory as I haven't quilted in a while. I noticed there were some basting stitches around the edge of the quilt. can you talk about that please.
