Do You Make These Mistakes in Your Quilting? PDF Print E-mail

All experienced quilters agree that there a few mistakes that all beginning quilters make (even some experienced quilters make them).

Now you will know these mistakes and how to prevent and avoid them, so your quilts will look like they were made by an experienced or professional quilter…..Even your very first quilt.

You get the benefit of my more than 25 years of quilting experience in this e-course.

There's the quilt where the dark fabric bled into the light fabric right next door. While it's true that these were hand dyed fabrics, it is also clear that they were not pre-washed enough to get all of the excess dye out to prevent that from happening.

In this e-course, you will learn what to do to prevent the fabric dyes in your quilt from running into their neighbors.

You can avoid that mistake by learning from mine.

Quilters often ask about why their quilt blocks are all different sizes. One of the reasons is that their seams are not accurate and consistent.

During this e-course, you will learn the value of an accurate seam allowance, and how to ensure that your seams are always 1/4 inch wide.

And, as if, blocks being different sizes wasn't enough of a problem, for years my quilts were odd shaped once they were finished. Frequently the sides of my finished quilt were wavy like a flag blowing in the breeze, and I couldn't figure out why.

Finally, after 11 years of quilting, an experienced quilter suggested a solution. Once I implemented her suggestion, my quilts have always had straight sides. And the best thing about that tip is that it is so easy to implement.

These are just a couple of valuable quilting lessons in store for you in our free e-course - The Seven Most Common Quilting Mistakes and How to Avoid Them.
