This club will attempt to get you started with your Coronet and feeling comfortable enough to use it on your own. Even if you don’t own a Coronet, join us to learn more about it! Topics will include assembling the sandwiches, how to load various quilts depending on sizes, basics like threading, adjusting tension, beginning and ending your quilting, moving quilts on the frame, channeling, working with rulers, etc. Beginner, $20 per session

No supplies unless instructed. Just bring yourself, your show and tell and any tools or supplies that you think the group might be interested in learning about. It is a great opportunity to bring “show and tell” and get suggestions from others. Suggestions on topics will be appreciated from those who attend. I think we can all benefit and learn from this group getting together.
