Join quilting expert Debby Brown as she guides you step by step through the process of learning to quilt with rulers. When quilting a full-size quilt on your home machine, it can become difficult when you have most of the bulk in the opening to the right of your needle. The advantage in using quilting rulers is that, since you can free-motion quilt in any direction, it allows you to avoid turning your quilt while quilting in all directions!
In this class, you'll learn how to:
- Correctly identify the proper ruler foot and ruler height for your specific machine
- Use a variety of marking tools to prepare your quilt
- Prepare the ruler so it will grip the fabric
- Position the ruler and quilt along its edge
- Create straight-line quilting such as Piano Keys, Diamonds and Crackle
- Work with curved rulers to quilt Clamshells, Concentric Circles and Spirals
