Why we Love Australian Designers

One of the things we love to carry at The Quilt Asylum is Australian Designers. Australian designers such as Jen Kingwell, Karen Styles, Megan Manwaring and Kathy Doughty think outside of the box on their designs. Their blocks are different and make you think harder and learn new techniques. These are not traditional designs, or have some sort of traditional twist. To view our Australian Design...

    Thank you so much for this tutorial. I am doing Jen Kingwell’s Pick-a-Petal. I didn’t think I would like hand piecing but the more I do it, the more I like it. This tutorial is an affirmation for me! Would love to know where the teeny pins come from that you are using.

      I’m doing Pick a Petal too, and I’m loving the hand piecing! I thought it would be way too fussy for me, but it’s very peaceful and satisfying. So glad to know I’m not the only one researching all of these hand piecing skills.

    Thank you so much for this video. I am hand sewing a rag quilt and was wondering how to make the intersections of seams more secure when I sew the stripes together. Going to do this method.

    • @Nancyswerner
      @Nancyswerner 4 місяці тому

      I’m still confused after watching the intersections part.. Are you basically going back and forth through the same spot a few times? Is that what she calls making a loop? I love thé vidéo but i got kind of stuck on that part. and it’s what I need to improve.

    Do you treat the edges of the fabric with anything to keep it from fraying from all the handling? It just looks so perfect when you’re done.

    I've started to hand piece and I love it. Prefer it to machine piecing. Relaxing. I'm marking my seam lines but my blocks end up too small. I've heard a scant 1/4 inch seam will go a long way to solving my problem . Do u sew along the line or short of it .

    I'm wondering if you double thread your needle? I always do to make sure it is never coming apart. I don't know if that's something other quilter's do or not lol. Great class I haven't quilted in years since mama passed away so I'm refreshing my memory. Thank you for the clear instructions. Blessings from NM

    • @thequiltasylum
