These Skills Will Unlock Limitless Designs

This is an ADVANCED class.

In teaching PS Designer, Jen liked to say this class is "10 Easy Steps to Create a Wholecloth.... with 3 additional tricky steps."   While the end results look pretty rad, you'll find that the clear-cut method to developing a wholecloth design is really-straightforward.

You will need a solid working knowledge of PS Designer. It will help if you've tried some of the digitizing and drawing classes here at the Quilty Quill, too.

Having demonstrated this class as a 40 minute workshop at Handi Quilter's Academy in 2023, it was clear that a more in-depth opportunity for advanced quilters/artists was necessary. Learn the whole process in this course.

These classes are hosted by Jen Eskridge. Prior to the Quilty Quill, Jen managed and launched Quiltable.com, which rolled into ProStitcher.com. You can find over 1,000 digital designs created by Jen on the Pro-Stitcher website. She's developed bag and box projects, simple edge to edge quilting designs and elaborate wholecloth projects.

Prepare to dive into the world of art + vectors + quilting designs with this collection of courses.

Techniques in this class are largely adapted from Jen's book, Free-Motion Framework, published by C&T Publishing. The concepts are quite similar in that we start with a frame or guidelines to then draw within our chosen shapes. The book focuses on free-motion quilting within a frame.

This Digital Wholecloth Process is modified to include additional steps which allow the quilter to have a finished vector-based design for computerized longarm quilting.

Like the quilts featured in Free-Motion Framework, the original quilt in this class measures 40" x 40".
