SOFTWARE CLASSES
Technique: Stippled Potholder
Are you intimidated by that perfect freemotion work that you see on quilts? Do you have a problem relaxing enough to embrace stippling, or its older cousin, meandering? Come learn how to incorporate stippling into your embroideries.
Recommended: 4D Suite (4D Design Creator, 4D Sketch)
Technique: In the Hoop purse
The latest rage is to create a project entirely in your embroidery hoop. Bookmarks, stockings, cell phone holders - the list is endless. This class will teach you the method used so that you can create your own.
Required: 4D Suite (4D Design Creator)
Technique: Embroidered Fabrics
Sometimes you want an all-over delicately embroidered fabric to create a one-of-a-kind pillow or garment. Fabric Decorator is one way to accomplish this.
Recommended: 4D Suite (4D Fabric Decorator)
Technique: Creating Redwork (One Colour Work)
There are lots of redwork designs out there, but never the right one for your special project. You've seen the perfect design or picture, but how do you get that simple outline?
Recommended: 4D Embroidery, 4D Suite or 4D Quilt Design Creator
Technique: Applications for Applique
Take even a basic outline and turn it into an appliqued embroidered design when it used to be done by hand or with a blanket stitch on your sewing machine. Or leave out the fabric altogether and create a satin border for more emphasis.
Recommended: 4D Design Enhancer or 4D Suite
A note from Moira:
There will be more Skills Sessions to come. We do plan to repeat the ones that already happened, as mid-week did not turn out to be the best for most people. And for those of you who previously had registered for the Yarn Couching and Thread Velvet sessions, they will be re-scheduled soon.
FEE: 40.00 PER CLASS OR 175.00 FOR FULL SESSION
We're Off to see the Wizard - Learning to Navigate in 4D (Beginner-Friendly)!
There are several wizards in our 4D Software, and each is designed to help you get started on a particular technique. Take some of the guess work out of your creations by understanding which Wizard is which and when to use them.
Recommended: 4D Embroidery Extra, or 4D Suite

Build Your Own Software Class
Don't see something you were hoping for? Get three of your friends together and create your own. You may have wondered whether your software could make a project easier, or you'd just like to have the chance to test a thought. Or the embroidery design you thought was perfect was not what you expected.
Booked based on time availability at Sew With Vision.
