  • Project Description
    Project Description Candlewicking is a form of surface embroidery that traditionally uses an unbleached cotton thread on a piece of unbleached muslin. It gets Candlewicking its name from the nature of the thread, which very much resembles the wick used in a candle. Motifs are created using a variety of knots (Colonial) and satin stiches (backstitich). A warm covering made of two layers of cloth filled with a material with loft and tyed together. Tying refers to the technique of using thread, Comforters yarn or ribbon to pass through all three layers of the comforter at reqular intervals. These "ties" hold the layers together during use and especially when the comforter is washed. A warm covering made of two layers of cloth filled with a material with Quilts loft and stitched together in lines or patterns. The top layer is typically pieced together and the bottom is one solid layer. Process of stitching together two layers of fabric, usually with a soft, thick substance placed between them. The layer of wool, cotton, or other stuffing provides insulation; the stitching keeps the stuffing evenly distributed and also provides opportunity for artistic expression. Quilting has long been used for clothing in many parts of the world, especially Quilting in the Far and Middle East and the Muslim regions of Africa. It reached its fullest development in the U.S., where it was at first popularly used for petticoats and comforters. By the end of the 18th century the U.S. quilt had distinctive features, such as coloured fabric sewn on the outer layers (appliqué) and stitching that echoed the appliqué pattern.

  • Basic Paper Piecing – a Tutorial for Beginners
    Basic Paper Piecing – a tutorial for beginners This tutorial assumes you’re comfortable operating a simple sewing machine. Beginner-level quilting experience is helpful but not required. Introduction Paper piecing, also called foundation piecing, is a method for accurately sewing quilt blocks by machine without needing accurate templates to cut fabric pieces. Fabric pieces are sewn directly to a printed foundation pattern on the reverse side, away from the quilter. During sewing, the printed side of the foundation pattern is face up so the quilter can follow the printed seam lines. The foundation is (usually) removed after sewing is completed. It takes a little practice to understand and feel comfortable with the process of paper piecing. Once you “get it,” however, you’ll be able to precision piece quite complex designs that would be impossibly tedious to sew by any other method. And it’s great fun to do! Getting Started Print the House and Pine practice block (last page) onto thin white paper, such as inexpensive copier paper. Though the design is very simple, the different fabric shapes and their sewing progression will be good experience in your first paper pieced block. If you like, print a 2nd copy of the pattern, which can be helpful when cutting out fabric pieces. Gather your scissors, a few straight pins, and some fabric scraps in various colors. A rotary cutter, cutting mat and quilting ruler are also highly recommended, but aren’t absolutely essential for this tutorial. Set up your sewing machine near a sunny window or a bright lamp, and have the iron and ironing board nearby.
