From machine setup to tension to your first core motifs, this time together is a clear next step and a clear path to momentum.
I’m HollyAnne, and it’s my job to guide you to quilt with confidence.
I know exactly what it feels like to look at a quilt top you love and have no idea how to do it justice.
I started quilting as a young mom struggling with isolation and postpartum depression. And I’ve come to believe that quilting gives us a road back to ourselves, our creativity, and our community.
Inside QRU, I’ll show you the way.

-

-
Built-In Support So You Don’t Get Stuck
With live coaching, virtual sewing sessions, and an active community, help and encouragement is never more than a click away
Whether you have…..
A small sewing machine:
“I went from being completely intimidated by free motion quilting to feeling comfortable enough to quilt my own quilts! I have an amazing toolbox of free motion motifs to use in the future and I can't wait to finish even more quilts myself."
No artistic ability:
“Before I started I could not make a curved line at all! Now I love making curvy motifs! The support and encouragement from HollyAnne and other Rockstars is so helpful! Worth every penny!"
A busy life:
“The structure of the class let me set the pace. As the weeks went by, I could see and feel my progress, going from awkward drawings and quilting sessions, to feeling my progress as I gained confidence. Never would I have thought in just a few months I would improve to this level.”
Budget constraints:
“Free Motion Quilting was always something that just seemed way too scary for me to even try, and I’ve followed HollyAnne for the last little bit just trying to justify the cost to myself and getting the courage to just try it. The whole course was professionally done and really well put together… I have already free motion quilted 4 quilts. Money so well spent!”
A loud inner critic:
“I loved the ‘permission to play’! Great videos to show us how to do each motif. I really thought this would be difficult but once I got going it really isn’t that hard. Practice is fun! You give us the confidence to get past our fears and get started! I really enjoyed this class.”
Lots of unfinished quilts:
“Best money I ever spent. I continue practicing every day, and I’ve quilted 52 projects since 2019, from table runners to queen size quilts. HollyAnne is an amazing teacher.”
Limited tech knowledge:
“HollyAnne is my favorite teacher for machine quilting because of her limitless enthusiasm and encouragement! I love that questions are answered live and cohorts have ongoing support and lesson access. What a privilege and opportunity to be in the very first Ruler Machine Quilting Academy cohort!”

Therese L.

Meet Aimee
Aimee joined Quilting Rockstar University a couple of weeks ago because she had a longarm coming, and she made a very deliberate decision when she ordered it: No computerization.
Not because she couldn't afford it– but because she wanted to learn free motion and ruler quilting
Her machine was delivered on a Friday.
She loaded her first quilt that weekend.
This is the difference a true curriculum (rather than random tips and tricks) makes.
When you join QRU for the year, you also get these exclusive bonuses:

FAQ
-
No. You can quilt on the domestic, midarm, or longarm machine you already own. We’ve had Rockstars finish their quilts on everything from the smallest Featherweights and treadles to the biggest longarms on the market and everything in between!
-
Then you’re in the right place! QRU is beginner-friendly with clear guidance, warm support, and simple steps to help you finish your quilts.
-
Yes. You can make real progress practicing just 15 minutes at a time, and the snack-size lessons inside Quilting Rockstar University will help you do just that.
Life will always be busy – the best way to make progress toward finishing your quilts is to start.
-
We’ve designed Quilting Rockstar University to provide support every step of the way. Ask your question in the QRU community or on a live Q&A, and we’ll make sure you don’t stay stuck for long!
-
No worries! We collect questions ahead of time for all the Q&As, and we post the replays in the QRU Q&A Vault. Sit & Sews and Masterclasses are also recorded and posted inside your member library.
-
Not even a little bit. QRU is a living, breathing membership community, not a course you sit alone with and never hear from anyone again. You can watch the pre-recorded lessons at your convenience, and with weekly Q&As, monthly Sit & Sews, quarterly masterclasses, and an active private community, there is always someone in your corner.
Think of it as quilting study hall with your gal pals. The lessons are there when you need them. But so are the people.

-
Yes — and here's why.
Most courses give you the knowledge and then the container disappears. The lessons end, the momentum fades, and the Inner Mean Grump gets her voice back.
QRU is the container that stays.
The weekly Q&As, the monthly Sit & Sews, the quarterly masterclasses, the community — none of it goes away. You don't have to white-knuckle your way through learning alone. You have ongoing structure, ongoing support, and ongoing accountability for an entire year.
The knowledge doesn't expire. And neither does the community.
Those quilt tops have been piling up.
The quilting you've been imagining — the swirls, the feathers, the beautiful designs moving under your needle like it's the most natural thing in the world — is waiting inside Quilting Rockstar University.
