Love Patchwork & Quilting的Issue 35目录

My seam ripper and I have been spending some quality time together of late, as I revisit some of the most fundamental units in my quilting repertoire. I've spent evenings and weekends perfecting the humble Half-square Triangle, making sure that I've got perfect points. I'm meticulously pinning every seam – it's tedious but it's paying off! This issue our super-star batch of designers have been working their very own magic with some classic quilting units. Whether it's Flying Geese, Dresden fans, Pinwheel blocks or (like me) HSTs that you're itching to sew, we've got you covered with fresh modern design updates on our favourite traditional blocks. Join us online… we love to share! LovePatchworkandQuilting @LoveQuiltingMag LoveQuiltingMag www.lovepatchworkandquilting.com…

If last year was the year of the mini quilt, this year is shaping up to be the year of the Sampler quilt. Don’t know what a Sampler quilt is? Well, it’s a quilt that’s made up of a number of various blocks that are all unique and non-repeating. The blocks are often constructed using a number of different methods, so that people could “sample” various techniques. Samplers used to be the quilt you made when you were starting out, because they are great teaching tools. However, now that so many of us are teaching ourselves how to quilt via online tutorials, YouTube videos and blogs, a lot of us never get to make a Sampler. Which is a crying shame. The Sampler revival that’s happening is fabulous for you…

Have you seen all of the amazing quilts on social media lately that look like they are three-dimensional? Whether they’re an optical illusion or truly created in three dimensions, these quilts really pop! Tessellating designs and 3D elements that create texture and depth are not new ideas to quilters, but it does seem like the modern quilting world has been embracing these types of designs recently. There are many methods to achieve these types of optical illusion quilts if you want to make a 2D quilt that appears to be three-dimensional. You can piece them with traditional methods, using y-seams, or use creative construction methods to put them together without y-seams. They can be paper pieced for accuracy, hand pieced using English Paper Piecing, or made using bias tape. Whichever…

PREPARING YOUR FABRICS Cut fabric pieces using the paper templates as a guide, cutting the fabric at least in larger than the template on all sides. Secure the template to the wrong side of each fabric piece, using a dab of washable glue or a pin. BASTING There are various methods of basting the fabric pieces to the paper templates. Our preferred method is corner tacking, but you can find a complete guide to all the methods on the LP&Q website. CORNER TACKING With this method the fabric is folded round the template and stitches are used to hold the fabric in place at the corners. If you want, you can leave the basting stitches in place at the end of the project, so it makes sense to use a…
