Class Description:
Pro-Stitcher is an intuitive computer-guided quilting system designed especially for use with Handi Quilter longarm quilting machines.
User-friendly and simple to operate, the step-by-step process for each function is easy and fun.
Whether finishing your own quilts or consider a quilting business, come see the elegant and precise quilting you can accomplish with Pro-Stitcher.
From the Instructor:
Day 3, the all-day Pro-Stitcher class, doesn’t go into as much advanced material as perhaps a 2-day class and will begin much the same as the Day 2 class.
We continue with more skills and features.
I always have extra material to keep going further if the students zip through the beginning items.
We don’t want to leave a slower student behind, but with an all-day class, there is more opportunity tailor the class to the students.

| Instructor: | Judy Hays |
| Instructor Bio: | Judy learned to knit, crochet, and hand embroider at a very young age, and began garment sewing later in high school. Her love of quilting began with a bicentennial quilt kit from a magazine and has flourished ever since. She loves to piece quilts using various methods and techniques, and es especially fond of traditional patterns and machine embroidered blocks. Working at her local quilt store since 2008, she fell in love with Handi Quilter longarm machines and all they can do to help her finish quilts faster. Since her previous career was in computer networking, Judy was especially drawn to the Pro-Stitcher, and loved to design quilting patterns using the Pro-Stitcher Simulator. Helping new quilters gain confidence in their quilting skills and finding their own passion is extremely rewarding for Judy. Judy lives in Colorado Springs, Colorado, with her husband, Bill, who "aids and abets" her quilting passion. She and Bill have two married sons, two grandsons, and one granddaughter.
