Adjusting patterns to fit your throat space

How to create and stitch a pattern to fit oversized blocks

Course Summary

A class by Tonia Brooks.

For many weeks Tonia has been designing patterns to fit blocks on a Judy Niemeyer quilt. This is a challenging quilt as nearly all of the major blocks are too large for the throat space on a longarm machine.  

Tonia will teach us how to create the blocks that you can't simply trace on quilt as they are too large. Plus then design a pattern that will allow you to stitch in parts that your machine can reach, but fit perfectly together once advanced and completed.  

There are many tips that Tonia will share that will allow you to work on your own quilts that have blocks/patterns that are too large to fit in 'your' machines throat space.

It all began with a sewing machine, and they just got larger!  In 2010 I purchased my A1 Longarm Quilting Machine and learnt to handguide designs I made, along with LOTS of e2e from paper patterns. Three years later I purchased my IntelliQuilter ClassiQ System. A whole new world opened up for me. I have taught at Australian Machine Quilting Festival in 2016. Sharing the amazing capacity of IQ design and features. Teaching has always been a core value of mine and now I get to do this on the Machine Quilting Academy Platform. My motto is, "If you can imagine it, you can IQ it".
