Thanks for watching, and happy crafting!
You make it look easy. Clipping that inner curve will make a difference. Thank you!
WOW, didn't know it was that easy. I have always gone past any curve pattern. Now I am going to try one in the near future.😊
Thanks!
THIS is why I make these videos! I am so happy that you found this useful and will now be able to try a new technique! Thanks so much for watching and commenting. ~Deborah
Thank you
You're welcome! ~Deborah
Thank you. You explained how to sew curves very well. I would love to see a video about how to piece complete circles rather than four pieces (if it can be done).
Do you mean complete circles like you see in the video, or complete circles appliqued to the background fabric without seams? I can show either, or both. Great suggestion! Thanks for watching and commenting! ~Deborah
@@piecesofthepast I was wondering if you could piece in a complete circle rather than appliqué it on the top or make it in four parts. A friend told me it couldn't be done. But if you cut the outside/frame of the circle 1 inch smaller than the center circle could it be sewn in the same way you demonstrated?
Hmm, I am having difficulty understanding the question. What would you do with the circle? Would it be attached to a background fabric? Or, are you talking about something 3D?
@@piecesofthepast Attached to the background fabric with a ¼ inch seam all around. I suppose the end effect would be the same as appliqué, but without the background fabric behind so you have a pieced in circle like a drunkard's path but without the seams.
I think I understand now. Yes, there is a way to do this. I could not explain it very well here, but if you search for "sewing fabric doughnuts" you should be able to find the technique. If you made your circles this way, the "background" would be hidden. You don't do the stuffing part, just keep it flat. I hope that makes sense. ~Deborah
wpattern would you use to teach a 10 yr old to begin quilting?
The first thing to do when teaching a child/youth to machine sew is to use an unthreaded machine and a piece of cardstock. Have the child learn seam allowance by "stitching" a straight line along the seam guide line. This will allow the child to familiarize themselves with the machine sounds, buttons, and functions. When ready to begin sewing a quilt project, a simple 9-patch will always fit the bill. Once the top is the size they want, sew it right sides together to the backing leaving a hole for turning (like making a pillow), then "quilt" it by either tying, or sewing lines across (in the ditch, or not). Hope that helps. Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you have not already! Happy quilting ~Deborah
