She will cover a volume of informaion on "fun"damentals, show design elements such as feathers of all kinds and flourishes as well as trapunto. And there there are all the tips that one can only share with a wealth of quilting experience! Decorative threads, the beauty of 300 thread count cotton sateen, and much, MUCH more.
