Quilted Joy's next sessions of the APQS Beginning Longarm Class and the Advanced Beginner Longarm Class are on July 24 and July 25 respectively. Normally these classes would be taught in the Louisville, KY showroom, but due to COVID we'll be offering this class online. The classes will be live and taught via a private Zoom video conference room.

Students will be able to enjoy class from the comfort of their own home. One of our fabulous quilt fairies will be monitoring a chat room to answer all your questions. And Angela will pause throughout class to answer those questions as well. We'll also record the class, so if you need to rewatch later you'll have access to that recording for a limited time after class.
