Savvy Serger School and Workshops with Linda Lee Vivian Thursday Through Sunday September 25-28 Spend 4 days in front of a serger with nationally renowned serging expert, designer and author, Linda Lee Vivian. Several years ago, Linda recognized an educational need in the exploding world of serging. Since then she has successfully taught thousands of students to be comfortable with their challenging sergers. Linda teaches seminars nationally at sewing expos, retailer training conventions, sewing guilds and shops. Join us as we invite Linda to help you make friends with a serger! Serger Quilt Learn to quilt on your serger as you make this fun scrappy quilt. As you stitch the rows together you are actually quilting the top, batting and backing all at the same time. You’ll be making these for all your friends once you learn the easy technique! Kits available. Class fee is $75 and includes lunch and drinks. Thursday, 9:30 AM-5 PM: September 25 Serger Round Robin and Trunk Show Come see all the different kinds of stitches sergers can make. We’ll have several sergers set up for you to experience first hand how different stitches are formed, and how easy it is to change stitches and thread patterns. Check out Linda’s fabulous models and ask the expert your questions! Class fee is just $5 to reserve your seat, and will be returned to you as a bonus for shopping that night. Thursday, 6:30-8:30 PM: September 25 Savvy Serger Workshop Learn everything you ever wanted to know about serging and more in the three-day hands-on workshop. You will start at the very beginning, learning a 3-thread overedge seam, but will then move ahead to tension manipulation and decorative thread work. Beginners will quickly feel comfortable as they build their knowledge and expertise, while more advanced students will have these skills reinforced and move ahead to more advanced techniques with ease. Here are just a few techniques you’ll master in this fun workshop: • Serger Braids • Thread Blending • Lace Seams • Couching • Coverstitch Quilting • Puffing • Tulle Edge Finish • Chain Stitching • Differential Feed Gathering • Ladder Stitch • Rolled Hems and Pintucks • Appliqué When you graduate from class, you will have many decorative pieces with a great variety of embellishments and techniques. These can be used for reference, turned into a vest, jacket or quilt top. Linda will offer many suggestions for you to choose from. Open to serger owners of all brands and skill levels. Dust off that serger and let’s get stitching! Cost is $225 for this full three-day event. Catered lunch and beverages will be provided. Class size limited to 12 students, so register early to avoid disappointment. Friday, Saturday and Sunday, September 26, 27 and 28 10 AM-4 PM each day SAVE!! Spend all 4 days with Linda and pay only $265!
