Next Meeting: Wed, Aug 6 at 7 PM
Special Guest: Linda Sullivan of Colourwerx - "My Best Tips for Precision Piecing"
|
This month, we welcome guest speaker will be Linda Sullivan of Colourwerx. This is a ZOOM-only virtual meeting, and we will start promptly at 7:00 PM PST. You are welcome to join the call early to chat with your fellow quilters before we start.
Want to perfect your 1/4” seam allowance? Most ‘piecing issues’ are small inaccuracies in cutting, piecing or pressing but each of these small inaccuracies can become compounded while creating the block. Mastering your scant 1/4” seam doesn’t have to be frustrating! Always searching for new ways of tackling everyday quilting issues, Linda is a true believer that quilting should be first and foremost, fun! And that "persnickety seams" and "potential piecing hazards" may be frustrating but can always be overcome. Linda will share her best tips and tricks for fabric preparation, setting your machine up for stitchin’ success, perfect pressing, favorite thread/needle choices and most importantly, tools and techniques for fine tuning and achieving your most accurate scant 1/4” seam allowance.
