Sharing a PASSION for Free-Motion Machine Quilting Education and Designs

A Warm Welcome from Joanie Zeier Poole

My goal for the Heirloom Quilting Designs website is to provide reliable information and beautiful, downloadable quilting designs that will motivate YOU to become a confident machine quilter. My vision is to combine valuable insight acquired over years of practicing free-motion quilting and the experience gained teaching thousands of students since 2000. I believe in high standards for my work and encourage you to start today to “give it your best”! I am here to help every step of the way, 24/7; anytime, anywhere. Here’s how you can learn…

In the Classroom…

Strengthen your skills attending a lecture, or hands-on machine quilting workshop. Students thrive with my enthusiasm for their success and relaxed teaching style. With a PowerPoint introduction to projects designed specifically for each technique, you will LEARN! valuable skills to last a lifetime.

At your sewing machine…

Sit right down to stitch using my Machine Quilting Books found in the SHOP! These step-by-step workbooks provide free-motion fundamentals that will have you quilting with ease.
