So very helpful

This course was a good platform for jumping off and stitching a DreamBig panel. Tracey gave so many good ideas for creating and encouragement in trying new patterns and concepts. It will make stitching my new DreamBig so much easier than the last one I did!

The Intelliquilter (IQ) support and knowledge provided by Tracey Browning is first rate! Her experience as both an A1 Quilting machine &  IQ dealer and award-winning machine quilter are invaluable in assisting me with any technical issues I have had over the years. I am so impressed by her knowledge that I purchased a membership to IQ Machine Quilting Academy as soon as I heard about it. Highly recommend Tracey’s skill and know how!
