Details
Die klas is vir kwilters wat ‘n basiese kennis van vryhandkwiltwerk (free motion quilting - FMQ) en ‘n basiese kennis van liniaalwerk het. Leer hoe om randstroke (borders), blokke en tussenstroke (sashing) met oorspronklike liniaalkwiltontwerpe te vul. Verdeel groot, oop spasies op die kwilt met liniaalwerk. Gebruik ander kwilttegnieke om die liniaalwerk aan te vul. Stik ‘n liniaalvoorbeeldkwilt (sampler) met al hierdie tegnieke.
