This is an all day class with the student working independently for a few hours. We will meet for 2 hours from 10:30-12:30 to create the couching design on the machine and begin stitching out. Then the class will continue to stitch and the instructor will return for the last 1.5 hours of the class from 3:00-4:30pm. We will finish the couched piece by turning the edges to the back if you do not wish to take the sewing portion of the class.
