This is a event that includes both sewing machine applique class component and a quilt-a-long for 12 weeks.  

The class component will cover the basics for: 
- Difference between steam-a-seam and heat-n-bond. 
- Difference between featherweight vs. heavy and iron heat impact.  What happens when your iron is too hot. 
- Basic blanket stitch around applique test piece.
