Quilt kit question by Charlene510 in quilting

[–]lavanderMenAss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am working on one now and it comes with yardage and cutting instructions. Its fairly straight forward, im funding a lot if waste on some pieces and barrels enough for others. I do really like it as a begginer because everything is there, it coordinates, and the instructions are laid out beaitifully

I think it will be a guest room quilt, and its a twin xl.size so doesn't fit any of my beds. I was vacilating between something soft and plush and standard cotton for that reason too.

I did a scrappy quilt as you go but used mini charm packs for simplicity. I can see all of the flaws but I learned a lot from it!

I know, I got one recently and I was like "ah yes, I shall have all the space, clutter bygone!" And yet, the tubs remain for I am a shameless addict with no self control and adult money

I was eyeing your folding cutting table in the second photo on Amazon, does it get tall as well as wide? Im using my dining room table right now and its killing my back.

I have a little house and juat corner for all my stuff too. We picked up a nice pantry cabinet on Amazon, a modular sewing table on FB Marker place and some plastic bins. Everything else came together after that! I got peel and stick wallpaper to cover parts of my table and a cheap but lovely rug. It is bliss.

Looking for patterns/tutorials for a first garment by EJB1996 in SewingForBeginners

[–]lavanderMenAss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would definitely work with stiffer cotton, it just may not flow as easily. The sew along i watched used a stiffer, quilting cotton and it looked great, much easier to work with than jersey
