Terri discovered quilting in 1989 when, interestingly enough, she was picking up cross-stitch supplies at a local craft store. She was intrigued by Eleanor Burns' book Quilt in a Day, and ended up purchasing the book, fabric and a rotary cutter that day. In 2004, she purchased a Gammill long-arm quilting system. Today, Terri runs her own business quilting for others. Terri's business is thriving -- she currently quilts between 150 and 200 quilts per year!

Excellant class. Terri Watson is an excellent teacher. She explains everything you need to know. I love the templates she gives us to practice with. I will be reviewing these tapes many times. I live the fact that you can add small elements to the patterns and get a new look. Very excited to learn more. Hopefully Annie’s will have Terri do more classes.

This is a very good class. Very clear. I love the traceable templates! That was just what I was looking for. I would have liked more content though.

I not quite through the entire lesson, but I have definitely picked up useful information already. I have been quilting for 20 years, but always did it by hand. recently purchased a long-arm, and need to learn a new skill. This class is very helpful in accomplishing that. I had problems with skipping stitches, no one ever mentioned it could be the tension of the quilt. Just that bit of knowledge is worth what I paid for it. I hope she does more classes for intermediate and advanced quilter's. I also like that I can return and review a lesson as a refresher.

This is a very informative class for beginners I would like more advance classes.
There is just not much out on the web in reference to long-arm quilters and maybe there is not much more to know. You find a lot of freehand quilting classes but very little on computerized quilting programs for which I am interested in. The prices are a little high and I also would not have purchased the class if it had not been for the special.
