Welcome to my Quilt Along

Welcome to my Quilt Along - introduction

Welcome to our first Quilt Along!

Join the fun and let me teach you how to make my quilt: Spinning Wheels.

See how easy it is to make a curved quilt all while sewing straight seams using Peeled-Back Patchwork.

I designed the Quilt Along so we can work on a different part of the quilt every day. I have allowed time for everyone to catch up before I post the next step.

Best of all you can use your scraps.

The majority of the pieces needed are 2-1/2" squares, which you may have already cut or you can easily cut from pre-cuts; strips, charms, and even 10" squares.

I will post the cutting instructions tomorrow (19 Mar 2020) at 8:00am EST

Piecing and sewing instructions for each day will be on my blog at 8:00am EST, starting Monday, March 23 and every morning thereafter until completion.

Join me on Facebook live 10:00am EST tomorrow to give you a short introduction, talk about fabric and supplies and getting ready for the Quilt Along.

I hope to see many of you there.

Notion Commotion Blog Hop - Bias Binding Simplified Ruler

Good Morning - Today its our turn to blog about a Notion discovered at Quilt Market. My special featured tool is a ruler: Bias Binding Simplified, designed by Janice Pope for Creative Grids . I can’t wait to show it to my students since it makes bias binding so easy . Best of all, the ruler has all the instructions printed right on it, so there is never a question on how to use it. It is 21” long on it’s longest side and has a 45° angle on one side, it is 2½” wide with an added 2¼” line for cutting binding in two sizes. Why even worry about Bias Binding? - Bias Binding is much stronger than straight-of-grain binding and absolutely essential to bind quilts with rounded corners or curvy edges. Bias binding will smooth out around curves and make the binding lay flat and pucker free. Once you use bias binding you will want to use it for most of your quilts - I definitely do, even for small quilts and table runners. Here is another fun use for the ruler
