Love Patchwork & Quilting 100의 목차

I remember the very first issue of LP&Q that hit the shelves. Fresh-faced and working in a fabric shop, I was immediately drawn to the bright fabrics and bold designs… needless to say nothing’s changed 100 issues later! We’re celebrating our 100th issue the best way that we know how, with the most creative new quilt patterns and a jam-packed feature with one of our favourite fabric brands, Art Gallery Fabrics. It’s filled with inside exclusives and swoon-worthy fabric sneak peeks! We’ve also joined forces with Karlee Porter to create five easy-use quilt stencils, so you can finish your quilts like a pro without even breaking a sweat. Whether you’ve been reading along since issue 1 like me, or are new around these parts, we’re so happy to be celebrating…

AGF STUDIO: SUNBURST SUMMARISE SUNBURST IN THREE WORDS Retro, colourful ,summer What inspired this collection? Sunburst is the celebration of a classic midsummer getaway, inspired by retro motifs from the 60s. As the weather warms up, we start to daydream of vacationing and catching some rays poolside! There’s something really magical about being outdoors during the summer. There’s a certain time of the day, right between high afternoon into early evening when the light is golden and colours are crisp, bright and rich. Sunburst really is an ode to the sunshine and excitement of a summer getaway. How did you go about curating the colour palette? Sunburst is filled with a bright, punchy, retro style palette. The splash of deep aquas and blues reference a cool swimming pool, and the…

I really love sharing my quilts on social media. But what I don’t love? Taking photos of quilts. And I’m sure I’m not alone in feeling anxious when it comes time to drag out my camera! So, to help reduce the stress, here are my five favourite rules of thumb for great quilt photography… 1 KEEP IT SIMPLE You (probably) don’t need any fancy equipment (unless you’re publishing your pictures). And, I’d bet, the camera on your phone is pretty top notch, as most of them are these days. I actually take 95% of all my pictures on my phone – I always have it on hand and it couldn’t be easier to quickly snap a pic as I go! 2 MAKE IT NATURAL Natural light is your best friend.…

With five stencils to choose from, there’s plenty of creative inspiration in this cool set! Here’s how to get started: 1 Place your chosen stencil on top of your quilt sandwich in the position you want to start your pattern. 2 Use a washable fabric marker to draw through the gaps in the stencil, making sure that your marks are clear. 3 Decide how you want to spread the design over the rest of your quilt. You can rotate the pattern if you like, or simply repeat it. Take the stencil and line it up with the last line you drew, then continue the pattern from that line. 4 Continue in this way, matching up the pattern until your quilt is covered. Once you’ve finished your design, you can get…

Isn’t it fun to know how many people love quilting as much as you do? They get the magic of petting fabric. They, too, see quilt possibilities in every geometric pattern they meet. And they definitely know the thrill of having two seams align perfectly! Being a part of the quilting community takes quilting to the next level. In fact, I’m willing to argue that the quilting community is one of the greatest, most uplifting communities to be a part of! Think I’m biased? Impossible! Step back in time with me for a moment… It’s late afternoon, spring 2018, and I’m off to the post office with the excited anticipation of a kid on Christmas Eve. Waiting for me inside a PO Box are envelopes filled with hand stitched words…

With the hashtag #wearefabrics, you can bet that Art Gallery Fabrics is a brand that knows a thing or two about the textile world! We talk to one of the founders of the company, Pat Bravo, and several of her talented designers who give us a fascinating glimpse into the world of Art Gallery Fabrics. Meet Pat Bravo, founder of the Art Gallery Fabrics dynasty… Tell us the story of how Art Gallery Fabrics came to be! It’s a long story! I started quilting many years ago and in the beginning was immersed in learning everything that was traditional quilting, but as the years went by, my inclination and fascination for artistic quilts was growing! Art quilts rapidly won my heart and I began creating some pieces, but soon I…

Each month, our expert Kate Webber shows you how to make a project using a new and exciting technique! MAKING A PUFF BLOCK Making puff blocks one at a time is the best place to begin if you are only making a few blocks, or just practising the technique to get the hang of it 1 You will need two squares of fabric for each puff block. The top square, which will be on show, should be 1½in larger than the lining square. The lining square will be hidden behind the backing of the final quilt, so can be any scrap or lining fabric you have to hand. For this project Kate used a 5in top square and a 4½in lining square. 2 With the squares wrong sides together, pin…
