Hand Quilting....Pick Stitching....A Tutorial....

Tools of the trade.... I prefer Piecemakers Embroidery needles for pick stitching with perle cotton...I almost always use #8 perle cotton. It is easy enough to thread through the eye of the needle, but thick enough to add a decorative touch to your quilt. I use either masking tape, painters tape or quilters tape to mark my stitching line. I aways tell students to use the thimble they are most comfortable with...I use a leather thimble. Wear the thimble on the middle finger of your dominant hand...with the stretchy part on your knuckle....YIKES!

Thorody – Contemporary Screen Printed Linen Products. LLUSTRE : So tell us how you came to form Thorody – what are your backgrounds, and how did you meet? Vicky Putler : Well, we both have fine art backgrounds, and we met on a teacher-training course at the Institute of Education – we were both planning to teach art and design. We completed the course and I managed one year of supply teaching before deciding that I never wanted to set foot in a secondary school again! Theo Sykes : I then spent a year or so drawing and doing carpentry. I think I would have enjoyed the teacher training course a bit more if it had been more hands on and less academic. VP : And then about three years ago we had our daughter, Dorothy – which is where we got the name Thorody from.

MAKOWER WINDSOR - 1648 - Small Cream and Red Floral. Gh quilting. Postage Stamp Quilt Block Tutorial – The easy strip-piecing way. Do you love the look of Postage Stamp quilts but aren’t too keen on cutting out thousands of those teeny-tiny squares and sewing them back together again?

Postage Stamp Quilt Block Tutorial – The easy strip-piecing way

This tutorial will show you how to make a Postage Stamp quilt block in a flash – by strip piecing. The block will finish at 8×8″ in your quilt (there are 64 1-inch blocks in each square) and will look like you spent months sewing it together! This is a great way to use up scraps or those extra fat quarters from another project. For a truly scrappy block try to use as many different fabrics as possible – 25-30 different fabrics for an 8×8″ block. You can use less or more, it doesn’t matter. I’m assuming you know the basics of quilting so I won’t go into all of the usual – clean your machine, basic rotary cutter safety, using 1/4″ seams, how to use an iron, yadda-yadda-yadda. Travel.
