Teaching hand quilting
If you were going to teach hand piecing and quilting to a friend, how would you go about it? Back-in-the-day, when I learned to quilt in the 80's, we were taught to draw around templates, cutting each piece out a quarter inch beyond the line, and then hand piece by following the drawn seam line. Now everyone uses rotary cutters. If I teach her to piece by stitching on the seam line, should I just have her draw around templates? Or is there a better way to do this, except using a rotary cutter? Seems like I should be able to figure this one out, but . . . ??
