Triangles | July 18 12:18 pm

Instead of trying to cut perfect triangles, just make squares and split them diagonally. The triangles are perfect every time.

Gift Wrap a Quilt | February 16 8:21 pm

When I give a quilt as a gift, I use some extra matching fabric I have purchased to make a pillow case to match the quilt.  You can make two if the gift is for a couple.  Then when I want to present the quilt, I fold it to fit inside the pillow case and tie a wide, pretty ribbon around in both directions.  It looks like a soft gift box!  It also makes a nice storage bag for the quilt, as the quilt should never be stored in a plastic bag.  The fabric needs to breath.  However, I don't know too many people who store a quilt -- they usually use it, hang it, or display it.

Happy Quilting and Gifting!

Before washing your fabric sew across the raw edges close to the edge so the fabric won't fray
