Meet Sarah Fielke, fabric and quilt designer and author of Quilting: From Little Things and Hand Quilted With Love.
Step-down piecing allows you to work in diagonal steps rather than in horizontal rows. These quilts can be scrappy or coordinated and done with plain squares or pieced blocks.
Take the hard work out of hand appliqué with Sarah's needleturn techniques, including easy ways to mark, make circles and create bias tape.
Continue with needleturn appliqué by applying your shapes to the quilt surface. Sarah shows you easy techniques for appliquéd curves and points.
Deconstructed piecing is fun! Throw away your rulers and your preconceived notions and quilt freehand and improvisationally.
Even more deconstructed piecing fun! You'll create Dolly and the flowers in her garden, then assemble the whole design.
Make curves without templates or pins while creating a deconstructed version of the classic New York Beauty block.
The 60-degree ruler is one of Sarah's favorite tools. In this lesson you'll see why, as she shows lots of interesting things to do, including equilateral triangles, diamonds and stars.
You'll love this quilt design, which features lots of different shapes that use the 60-degree ruler. Sarah chooses contemporary fabrics, but this design lends itself to traditional prints and solids as well.
The wedge ruler gives you more angles and options to try, from tumblers and wagon wheels to thimbles and stripes! Make the Spring Garden design in a Dresden plate style with a fussy-cut circle at the center.
