Quilt crazy!

on 17 July 2015

This is a fun winter project to do. It will keep you warm and cosy in bed. Why don’t you try doing our home-sewn quilt?! It’s easy, all you do is gather bits of fabric with different patterns and colors. That’s step 1. Step 2 is sew them into rows and give each of the rows the same amount of patches in them. Then once you’ve got all of your patches in rows, then stitch all the rows together with the sewing machine. That’s step 3. Step 4 is find a big piece of fabric that will cover the whole back of the quilt. Lay it down on the floor with fuzzy cosy filling inside. Safety pin it all together. Step 5. Now sew some lines down the quilt, holding the back fabric and the stuffing inside. Step 6. Go and buy some bias binding and then stitch it around the edges of the quilt. And then voila! You’re done!

    Cute quilt! I often wish I had a sewing machine. I bet it would take a long time to sew all that by hand!
