I did use little hair clips to keep the foundation material where it needed to be so it would not be caught up in the rows. |
Adorable! :)
|
Very pretty. Do you quilt around the squares or tie the quilt? I've seen picture of some and thought they would make a nice lap quilt for nursing homes or someone in a wheel chair.

I don't know which clips you mean. I brought this as a kit but it was not puffy enough the way it was package so I used the thin material that is used to transfer dress or clothes patterns as the foundation so it was made in one piece and then I sewed the finished quilt to the backing. The best way to get it really puffy is not to over stuff. I washed it before I gave it away to be sure that it would launder well and I was very happy at how well it washed.

Lucky girl!

A dear friend gave me the pattern booklet for that and I like looking at it. One more for the "to do" list. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Teresa

I love those quilts. I made one for each of my three daughters years ago and it took a lot of time and fabric and work, but just loved them when they were done. I made a pillow too and it looked nice after it was done. I like the colors you picked.

This is a square quilt that is 14 rows by 14 rows. I sewed 14 rows of blocks in 14 separted lines. I use material that is used to transfer dress patterns as the foundation because it was easy to mark into 3.5' squares. I sewed the 4" sqaures into the 3.5" block by pinching 1/4" of each block. First I sewed down and then across, once again pinching 1/4". This left one side open. I gently stuffed this with filling and then closed the entire row, pinching 1/4" to make a 3.5" square. I learned this from Kaye Wood. |
