Create pictures and motifs of your own design with a variety of textures and stitches for exciting results. Basic knowledge of your sewing machine is required to extend your skills to include free style embroidery. Gain confidence in adapting your machine to new techniques, (your machine will sew perfectly well afterwards). A machine with decorative stitches is not essential as most machines will adapt to freestyle. If you have doubts about your own machine, Linda will be pleased to advise you before the day.
