students using the long arm sewing machine

The MS Quilting class is in full swing. A highlight of the year for our advanced quilting students is when they get to use our longarm quilting machine for the first time. On Monday, eighth grader Maleah Stewart began learning how to use the longarm. On Tuesday, eighth grader Connor Risley also tried out the longarm for the first time.  These two young quilters are learning a skill that many lifelong quilters never have the opportunity to learn.
