I have been doing Quilt As You Go for a couple months now and found the technique on www.treadleon.net. Here are some pics of what I've done.

I'm teaching this technique to my quilt guild in March. I've been using my stash and making blocks for soldier quilts we give to our wounded warriors. Will use these to teach my church's quilters the technique Monday.
It's great and am sure you all will enjoy doing it all yourself. |

I did a quilt as you go for my mom. It was fun to do one square at a time, use decorative stitches to quilt each block, and then join the blocks in rows with sashing. It was more difficult to join the rows because it got very heavy (it is all flannel), and there was a lot of drag (notice my sashing did not always line up). :( I'm glad I did it for the experience, but found I prefer the traditional pieced top and layering and then quilting!

I've done table runners and those were easy.

I used several of the methods in this book on all my large quilts (until I got a longarm) and it made the quilting process much easier. Patty |

I always quilt on home sewing mec. I though it would be the easy was if there is a easy way! Good luck with your projects and hopefully you'll share photos us with us when they are completed. My quilt as you go have been all hand quilted so I'm very much in learning how this will work on a sewing machine and have read everyone's posts with great interest and checked out the links shared. I agree that the quilt as you go shared on the tutorial on this board may be the easiest way to go for you. Have fun and enjoy doing it. Please keep us all updated on your progress. Patty |
