Drawing with Your Sewing Machine with Janet Clare
Quilting Equipment • Educational, G, 11-Jun-2020
Janet loves to create line drawings with her sewing machine. She does this either simply by sewing with thread or by following the edge of a fused applique shape. Her books and patterns are full of inspiration with simple shapes of dogs, cats, birds and flowers.
She talks through the equipment you need to have on your sewing machine. Then how to go about doing a practice piece. You shouldn’t be afraid to practice, because you don’t have to show this to anyone and it can go into the bin if necessary!
The quilts in the background are from her book “The Wordsmith” which is available in our website.
