Longarm Academy 2020 Classes
27th April to 1st May 2020
A fabulous selection of classes from internationally renowned quilters.
How does Longarm Academy 2020 work?
To book a place, delegates at our Longarm Academy 2020 will be required to register as either a Sitdown, Standup or Pro Stitcher (computerised quilting) user.
Separating into 3 programmes in this way will allow more choice of classes for each delegate .For each programme, delegates will attend a mandatory "Core Programme" and will then be able to select Optional Classes from a fabulous selection offered by our Academy Teachers - Helen Godden, Lynda Jackson, Telene Jeffrey, Melissa Kruschwitz and Annelize Littlefair.
