Embroidery  Session: ITH Quilt Blocks

This immersive, start-anytime online course dives deep into the art of in-the-hoop quilt blocks. This modern approach gives you flawless results with minimal effort at the sewing machine.

 

In this in-depth, self-guided embroidery course, you’ll learn how to achieve "faux piecing" using in-the-hoop appliqué methods for perfect accuracy every time. Each block is expertly engineered so your appliqué pieces align exactly where they should, making it easier than ever to produce consistent, beautiful quilt blocks without traditional piecing challenges.

Use these techniques to create in-the-hoop quilt blocks that can be mixed and matched in myriad ways to create hundreds of projects. To put practice into project, you'll then use one of two in-the-hoop quilt block designs from Embroidery Library and Urban Threads to stitch a stunning table topper.

 

Thanks to clever ITH appliqué techniques, you’ll achieve the look of beautifully pieced quilt blocks—without having to match up points, align seams or deal with tiny fabric pieces. Your embroidery machine does most of the magic, allowing you to be creative with fabric choice and placement to suit your décor style.

Each block is also accented with charming micro-embroideries for added texture and embellishment, making your finished runner truly one of a kind. Not only will you get two quilt block designs in two sizes, you'll also get coloring sheets for each design so you can play around with block placement and sizing to complement your table best.

With the purchase of this Session, you'll receive an in-the-hoop quilt block embroidery collection from Embroidery Library, valued at $17.92!

This collection includes two quilt block designs in two sizes, with decorative micro-embroideries already added to the blocks for additional embellishment.

I LOVE Embroidery Library!

Linda C.

I'd like to thank you for this wonderful class. I have placed all the instructions in my Word program and printed them up. I've now got it in a notebook entitled "All About Towels," Sulky Instructions. In the Word Program, I've designated where and when to watch the video for each towel type, along with the website to go to. Thank you again for the time and effort you put into this tutorial. It is well worth the money.

These sessions are so well laid out; I have a new embroiderer friend who also signed up & I hope is following along w/o my assistance. I love spreading the word.

I am a librarian and a teacher, and these lessons are definitely organized, complete and easily followed. The links have all worked and the related resources are all consistently posted on the right in each lesson. What could be easier? Great planning. I appreciate your effort. Thank you.
