As quilters, we know our tools and accessories are extremely important to our craft and making the best-looking quilts possible.
Undoubtedly, an iron is one of the essential tools in our “toolbox.”
But what if you don’t need your large iron to get the job done?
In this post, we will shift our focus to the small but mighty mini irons that are on the market for quilters.
We’ll go over the benefit of having a small quilting iron and then look at seven great options for you.
As a quilter, sometimes you don’t want to set aside 30+ hours to create an entire quilt.
Sometimes you just want a quick project to work on that you can still express your creativity without having to block out hours upon hours.
Finding easy quilted potholder patterns is a perfect way to work on less time-consuming projects.
Potholders (or hot pads) are something that everyone needs in their kitchen.
They make fantastic, handmade gifts and will last for years if made well.
Let’s look at some DIY potholder patterns and get some inspiration to make our own!
If you have ever wandered the aisles of your local arts and crafts store and stumbled down the sewing machine aisle, chances are you have come across machines called “sergers” or “overlock machines.”
But how do you choose one when there are so many on the market with a wide price range?
We’ve read dozens of serger reviews to figure out what the best serger for you might be.
Read on as you’ll learn the pros and cons of nine great options and, hopefully, remove some of the guesswork of choosing the right serger for your needs.
Have you ever been shopping at your local hobby store, and you see a machine called a “serger“?
You’ve wondered, “What is that used for?” I remember doing that several years ago, and I honestly thought it was a complex machine I would never need or want.
Fast forward a few years, I now have a serger and have had lots of fun (and maybe a little frustration) trying to figure out how to use it and what to use it for.
This post will go over all the ins and outs of a serger machine, what you can do with it, how it differs from a regular sewing machine, and if it is worth your time and money to purchase one.
Have you noticed that no matter how efficient you are with your fabric cutting skills for a quilting project, you still end up with scraps of fabric in varying sizes?
If you’re like me, you have at least one storage tote full of fabric scraps that you’ve been collecting over the years.
We will go over what to do with scrap fabric in this post, and I’m super excited to show you some fun, unique crafts with fabric scraps.
Have you wanted to create a quilt from scratch but have no idea what pattern to design or fabric to choose?
I know the feeling and trust me, you are not alone when you feel overwhelmed or confused about what to do next.
Luckily for us, there are quilt kits on the market that take all the guesswork out of designing a pattern, choosing fabrics, and figuring out how much fabric to purchase.
