Do you have trouble getting your quilts quilted on your sit-down sewing machine because of all that bulk? Quilt first and then sew your quilt top together. Let me teach you how. You will learn 3 methods for joining already quilted blocks.
Method 1: Back to Back & 2: Spacer use sashing that follow Pauline Rogers’ method for plain/ Appliqué blocks and then pieced blocks. These two methods you quilt to the edges of your blocks, trim and join with sashing strips. Learn how to use the handy sasher tool and Roxanne’s basting glue, all in the workshop kit, to make joining your quilted blocks a breeze. The Quilt-As-You-Go handbook is recommended.
Method 3 joins your quilted blocks from the top without sashing. To learn this method students will need 4 – 6 ½” x 6 ½” pieced blocks that are layered and quilted to 1 1/2” from the edge all around.
Quilting considerations for the Quilt-as-you-go method and quilting ideas for reverse applique will also be discussed.
