A blog about quilting and other fun stuff! Sure, my quilts are usually a bit out of square and one stitch off but who cares? It's the creative journey that counts. Join me as I share my latest quilting endeavors.

Machine Quilting Tip #1
Over the weekend, I taught a no-mark, free-motion feathers quilting class at my local quilt shop. During the class, I shared a number of machine quilting tips with my students. I have additional tips and information that I promised to share on my blog, but instead of starting out with one of my own, I wanted to share this great tip on Aligning the Quilt Sandwich from Red Pepper Quilts. This tip/tutorial is particularly useful if you like to piece your backing and want to align the back with the top. Also, Red Pepper Quilts quilted her mini quilt with a square spiral and shares a very clever way to mark where to take the turns. Please be sure to leave a comment for Red Pepper Quilts thanking her for her tip/tutorial and let her know that you heard about her here. Thanks for visiting and I'll share tip #2 in the next few days.
