Enjoy your class as many times as you want, whenever you want. Your access never expires.
If you've ever wondered what all those decorative stitches on your sewing machine really look like, and what on earth to do with them, this is the course for you! Stupendous Stitching will show you how to incorporate all kinds of stitches into a work of art. Or take what you learn in this class and embellish clothing or make your own fashion accessories.
In this 11-lesson course, you will use thread couching, decorative machine stitching, hand embroidery and quilting to make an original wall hanging. You'll finish the wall hanging with a unique satin cord rattail binding, and mount it on a wood frame for a perfect presentation.
You will also create your personal Stitch Bible, a handy permanent reference for future sewing projects. You will discover that you actually have many times the number of stitches you think you have on your machine, because you can change the look of each standard stitch by modifying how long or wide it is.

excellent class May 16, 2012
Carol did a wonderful job. Her instructions were clear. She showed good examples and nonexamples. She was very accessible. I never felt intimidated. And her techniques are applicable to many other other types of sewing ventures. I highly recommend it.
Good Teacher May 16, 2012
She is delightful and has so many good ideas. I love what I did and can see other possibilities. Her instructions were clear.
Great Class May 16, 2012
Thanks Carol - this was a fun project and I really learned some "good stuff". This is a great way to really learn your sewing machine if you have not experimented with the decorative stitches before. Even though I had used my decorative stitches a lot, I learned some tips that made things much easier. I will use what I learned in this class again and again.
Learning is fun. May 16, 2012
Thanks Carol for a fun course. Am learning a lot about stitching and my sewing machine as well. What fun. I would suggest this class in a heartbeat. Thank you Carol.
Expanded My Horizons May 15, 2012
This class is very well done, and the freedom to take Carol's ideas wherever I wanted was so much fun! It was like a vacation for my sewing mind--I could work on the big picture without obsessing over the little details. I'll definitely start another project. I particularly enjoyed the balance between machine and hand sewing. I had not previously done much machine decorative stitching, or hand embroidery. A great experience!
Fabulous Class May 15, 2012
Although I have only watched the class, it looks like a lot of fun! Carol is a wonderful teacher, I can't wait to start. All I need is the time!
Thanks May 15, 2012
You so inspired new creativity in me.
Exciting opportunities May 15, 2012
I really enjoy the extra added tips to these projects. Carol provides lots of "look fors" and extras that I didn't even think about.
I especially enjoy the feedback and the conversation from others who are ahead of me in the class. It is like using all of their expertise. :)
Stupendous Stitching May 15, 2012
This type of art is entirely out of my comfort zone, but I have enjoyed the class. Got a lot of ideas for some of my own art quilts--how to put texture into a piece--any class I have taken has taught me something.
Thank You May 15, 2012
This class has been just great. I learned all about my sewing machine and now I have a way to use all those stitches I paid for.
Carol was very informative and set things out clearly.
Everyone really liked my piece. I just use it as a wall hanging but I plan to use this stitching a lot more.
Thanks for presenting this class.
