Quilting / Patchwork

Dear users, dear authors,
would you like to share something about quilting / patchwork?

Quilting is the process of sewing together the three layers of a patchwork quilt.
Patchworkers are a bit crazy—that’s what we say in the sewing forum I frequent—first they buy fabric by the meter, then cut it into small pieces, and then sew them back together :-) :-)))))))) On my Africa quilt, you can really see the hand-quilted elements.
Machine quilting works too—I usually quilt along the seam lines. The quilt in the coffee colors is called a “Log Cabin.” It’s a very popular way to make a quilt because you can sew it tone-on-tone, like here, or in a rainbow of colors.

Best regards, Inge
