Segment Two

Now that we have a general idea of what we wish to do, how do you know what quilt pattern to use where, and what about placement? Suzanne uses Quilters Preview Paper to audition her designs and then stitches them out to test them with real thread-without committing to them!

In Short Takes on Longarm Quilting, Vicki Hoth turns her attention to the often neglected back of quilts. She offers tips for choosing backing fabrics, shows how to seam a quilt, and how you can make a quilt for the back by piecing quilt backings.
