book Our Favorite Art Quilting Tips
  • If you've committed to making a journal quilt or quilt square every week, make up several sandwiches in advance.
  • To relieve stress: try out a new free-motion pattern on a "practice" sandwich, hand-embroider, or sort buttons or fabrics by color
  • Looking to try a new pattern or color combination? Study ethnic costumes and textiles like Native American blankets or African beadwork.
  • If you want to heat-fuse some Angelina fibers but don't have baking parchment, use a brown paper grocery bag to protect your iron.
  • Use the cover from a butter dish or the top of a deli container to corral runaway beads while working.
