In this Quilter’s Playground session, we’ll return to the Dream Big panel by Hoffman Fabrics, this time focusing on free motion quilting techniques that bring the panel to life.
Our instructors will demonstrate how to read the panel design, use the natural shapes of the petals as quilting guides, and create flowing free motion designs that enhance the fabric artwork without overpowering it.
You’ll see how simple quilting motifs can create stunning texture, movement, and depth across a panel quilt. Whether you're quilting on a longarm or practicing your free motion skills, these techniques will help you approach panel quilting with more confidence.
If you'd like to follow along with the same project, consider grabbing a Dream Big panel so you can quilt along with us during the session.
You’ll Learn How To:
• Use the shapes in the panel design to guide quilting paths
• Add texture and movement with simple free motion motifs
• Quilt large open areas without overwhelming the panel artwork
• Build confidence when quilting panel quilts
Perfect for quilters who want to strengthen their free motion skills, gain ideas for quilting fabric panels, and learn how quilting can transform a panel into a finished quilt.
