We want to extend an invitation to you to join us for Longarm-A-Palooza.

Longarm-A-Palooza is an exclusive quilting event for prospective longarm owners.
Students will learn everything there is to know about longarm quilting and be able to see what our Janome longarm machines are all about!

In 2021, when we first got our longarm machine, we hosted an event just like this one and it was a success! Our students learned many, many things about longarm quilting and loved everything that was covered. As longarm newbies, we also participated in the classes to see what we could absorb. Let us tell you, it was amazing! In fact, we learned most of the things that we know about longarm quilting at that event. We know that Longarm-A-Palooza will be just as fun and enriching. If you're serious about your quilting, this is an event that you do not want to miss!


WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND LONGARM-A-PALOOZA?

We host regular longarm familiarization classes in our studio. For occasional longarm users, these are excellent lessons. However, if you're interested in purchasing a longarm machine, Longarm-A-Palooza is a better fit for you. The material covered at this event will be much more thorough and extensive than anything we ever teach in our familiarization classes. 


WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
At this event, Miriam will go over how a longarm machine works, show you how to make designs and motifs with free-motion quilting and pantographs, and teach you how to use ProStitcher so that you can easily set edge-to-edge quilting designs. You'll leave the event fully equipped with the knowledge you need to make impeccable quilts!

*You can find more details about the structure of classes below!*


WHO CAN ATTEND?
Due to limited space, this event is only suitable for those who are interested in purchasing a longarm machine. However, attending this event does NOT mean that you have a buy a longarm machine right away. Buying a machine is a BIG commitment, and we completely understand that you may need some time to think about getting one for yourself. We don’t host events like this regularly (the next one may be more than a year away!); if you think that you’ll want to purchase a longarm machine in the near future, even if it's two years from now, you should still attend Longarm-A-Palooza. As a quilter, the skills that you’ll gain at this event will be invaluable, and they're sure to serve you well as you progress through your quilting journey.
