Learn Machine Quilting Stitches with Lisa Sipes | Adaptive Quilting with Nola Emerie

(Show 1506) Longarm artist Lisa Sipes was encouraged by her mom, a quilt shop owner, to give quilting a try to recover from depression—and a passionate new quilter was born.  Now a well-regarded professional longarm artist who loves detailed work, Lisa shares fun ways to add visual and textural interest to a wholecloth quilt with a variety of stitches and colored threads. She also shows how she creates her signature "triple stitch" and alternative ways to finish the edges of your quilt. We end by visiting with the amazing and inspirational Nola Emerie, who—after suffering a massive stroke at age 52 that paralyzed the right side of her body—decided to take up quilting. You won't want to miss their inspirational stories.
