Maybe it’s the word “art” that has stopped you. Perhaps the endless products and embellishments seem overwhelming. Whatever the reason, there is only one solution—just begin. With a few simple tools, a little fabric, and a desire to play, you can create a small art quilt of your own design. Don’t let a lack of formal training hold you back. The most important quality that you can bring to your art quilt is your own vision. An art quilt is an expression of your own individuality. It can draw on traditional patterns and techniques, but the end result is a totally new—unique to you—design. The beads, paints, transfers and other applications are there for your use if the spirit moves you—if not, save them for another day. In fact, because art quilts are not meant for “use,” and therefore will not be washed, you are free to experiment with “Thinking Chair” • 7" × 12" CREATE YOUR OWN HANDMADE QUILTS: 5 HAND QUILTING TECHNIQUES FROM QUILTING DAILY QUILTINGARTS.COM 3 ©Interweave 5 HAND QUILTING TECHNIQUES FROM QUILTING DAILY non-traditional methods and is important, but it should not inhibit 2.

  • Sewing Machine Needle Tips
    Quilters Corner 518 West State Street Ithaca, New York 14850 Authorized PFAFF & Baby Lock sewing machine dealer 607-266-0850 www.e-quilterscorner.com Sewing Machine Needle Tips Did you know that you should change your machine needle every 6-8 hours of sewing? It's true! Changing your needle is one of the best preventative machine maintenance tasks you can do. You want the tip of the needle to be super sharp to go through your fabric without catching the threads. As you stitch, the tip of your needle will get microscopic nicks. The longer you sew on that same old needle, the more your pretty stitches will start to deteriorate. Why spend time sewing crummy stitches? Don't forget while changing your needle to take off your needle plate and brush your machine's teeth (clean around and in between the feed dogs, etc). If you don't do this, eventually you'll have dense pads of lint collecting and building up and it will effect how your fabric feeds. You should also clean around your bobbin area every time you change your bobbin. Just a quick swipe with a little brush will do the trick. What needle should you use? Quilting Needles are made especially for piecing and machine quilting. The special tapered design allows for easier fabric penetra- tion and helps eliminate skipped stitches. If you are having trouble burying your threads while quilting, try a single hole plate. The smaller hole in the plate helps keep the fabric from pulling through to the bobbin and the bobbin thread from pulling to the top.

  • A Guide to Finishing Your Group Quilt
    A guide to finishing your group quilt Group quilts are a great way to be creative, sociable and learn new skills from each other. Use this easy step-by-step guide to help you put your group quilt together. Please contact the Quilt Museum’s Education Officer ([email protected] ) if you need further advice. What do I need to finish the quilt? • Your finished (sewn together) quilt top. This may be a series of patchwork blocks arranged in a chosen formation, usually a rectangular shape. • Wadding for the middle of your quilt – a cotton or cotton/polyester mix is easier to quilt with but if you can only get polyester, get a reasonable quality one, around 4oz heavy. You may not be able to get wadding in the complete quilt size but can always sew pieces together to fit your quilt top. • Backing fabric – a sheet is always good if you can’t find enough fabric. Make sure the backing fabric is at least an inch larger than the quilt top and wadding all the way around. • Pins for the tacking and binding stages • Spray-on adhesive (e.g. 505 spray) or brightly coloured thread and a needle for tacking • A sewing machine for quilting or wool/thick embroidery thread and a good embroidery needle for knot-quilting (quilting with a machine will make your quilt stronger but knot quilting is easy and students can help with this). How do I prepare? 1. Layer your quilt like a sandwich. Start by placing the backing fabric, face down on the floor or a large table.
