This video is very helpful if you like using small scraps to make a beautiful quilt. I think it is perfect to match them with solid fabrics to make half-square-triangles. There are so many beautiful quilt layouts using them. --Ann

I will happily admit that Christina Cameli is one of my favorite teachers for quilting. This video has some helpful tips on picking your designs, no matter whether you are planning walking foot quilting, free motion quilting, or ruler quilting. So many great ways to go. --Ann We held our first Zoom Quilt-Along and all worked on the same quilt Puzzle Box by Missouri Star Quilt Co. It was a fun day, and we were ready to sew. Members are still sending in photos, and I will add them here as I get them. Fun fabric colors and prints, and lots of visiting while we worked. We will be having another Quilt-Along in a couple of months, so I better get working finding another free pattern! --Ann Our Block Lotto for February was the Friendship Star Block. This block has a long history and was popular to gift to friends leaving to "go west" in America's early days. Traditionally, the quilter would also embroider their name in the center of the block as a memory quilt for the traveler. I do my binding exactly this way every time. It is so easy to get things twisted and I never have a problem if I follow this technique. Only extra tip I can add is that I also fold the edge of the quilt and pin/clip it so that all the bulk of the quilt is out of my way. Then I don't have any pull on the binding when I am test pinning it before stiching the ends together. --Ann PS - A big thanks to Member Janice J for sharing this video with us! |
