Jenny has always loved to play with her sewing machine and ‘Jenny’s Techniques Quilt’ extends the creative possibilities of your machine. It is designed to teach you the decorative sewing side of your machine and showcase the effects you can achieve using decorative stitching, different feet and needles. Along with this, Jenny's Techniques Quilt showcases the many fabric, embroidery and machine artistry techniques that are achievable with just a sewing machine.
The decorative embroidery on this quilt is added after the eight blocks are completed and the quilt pieced, teaching you different and additional techniques. Each block can be used individually (as well as being pieced into the quilt) enlarged or extended to be made into pillows, a table runner, a purse and garments.
The directions, all the embroidery designs and patterns are all included on the CD. You are going to be amazed at how truly creative your machine can be along with a ‘little help’ from the queen of decorative stitch, Jenny! |
