Load It & Love It: Longarming Made Simple



Start your longarm journey with confidence! In this hands-on class, you’ll learn how to:

  • Properly load and secure a quilt sandwich on the frame.

  • Experiment with a variety of thread types, weights, and colors using our Thread Play Sampler project.

  • Adjust tension for different thread types to achieve beautifully balanced stitches.

  • Perform basic cleaning and maintenance tasks that keep your machine in top shape.


You’ll leave class with your own stitched sampler — a “thread cookbook” you can reference on future projects — plus a maintenance checklist and safety guide to help you continue quilting with confidence.


Perfect for new longarm owners, renters, or anyone wanting to refresh their fundamentals or get better with balanced tension.
