ATTENTION Sewists, Embroiderers, Quilters...

Are you confounded with all the sewing threads available out there in the wide, wide world? Cotton, Polyester, Nylon, Rayon, Perle Crown, Crown Perle, Thick threads, Thin Threads, Glow in the Dark Threads, Metallic threads, Twisted threads…. the list goes on and on and on. Which can be used for what, used when, used why? How to choose???

And then there are needles! Types: Universal, stretch, quilting, topstitch, denim.  Sizes: 90/14, 75/11, wing, 120. Cutwork needles; Felting needles.  What does it all mean? How to choose which to use?  Using the correct needle can actually solve a lot of the problems sewists encounter.

Is it enough to want to tear your hair out? AARRGGHHH!!!

Oh, and stabilizers...but that's another class for all you embroiderers. This class touches on them just a little.

This class will answer so many of those frustrating questions.  This is a lecture/demonstration class.  Just bring pencil and paper for note taking and, of course, your questions about needles and threads. 
 
Note: We will not be taking a lunch break but do feel free to bring something to munch on during class.
