Sew a 3D Applique Project!
With a few smaller-scale quilts under my belt, I thought what better time than now to try out some new quilting techniques for my next project!

My favorite of all, though, are those applique pieces that use 3D elements, whether it be simple accents like pom-poms and tassels, or more uncommon, like braids of yarn used as hair. Since the holiday season is in full swing, I decided to keep with…

Foundation Paper Piecing Tutorial
Foundation paper piecing (FPP) is a technique that is used mainly for two reasons. Either to piece shapes that don’t lend themselves well to traditional piecing, such as odd angles, or for very precise piecing, particularly when using many small pieces.

Let’s cover a few basics first: – FPP templates look a little different…
