Bright Side Pillow: Cutting
6:47
Get started with a simple modern pillow. Meghan helps you choose and cut your fabrics so you're ready to sew.
Bright Side Pillow: Piecing
12:14
Sew up the Bright Side blocks to start your pillow. You'll use the same concepts again later to make a full quilt. Meghan shows you how to easily piece and press the blocks for best results, before adding border strips to complete the pillow front.
Bright Side Pillow: Finishing
15:53
Learn a simple way to mark and quilt a crosshatch design on the pillow front. After that, prepare the back pieces and sew them together to create an envelope-style pillow cover that's beautiful (and removable!).
Bright Side Quilt: Fabric & Cutting
8:23
Now, look at the fat-quarter friendly Bright Side quilt as you learn how to select, cut and organize your fabric pieces. Big blocks make these steps go quickly!
Bright Side Quilt: Piecing
7:30
Sew up the simple blocks and striped Bright Side blocks. Meghan demonstrates how to press them to ensure the small strips lie flat for quilting.
Bright Side Quilt: Assembly
10:32
Finally, sew the blocks into rows and press the seams so they'll nest to make quilt top assembly a breeze. Plus, learn the best order to sew your rows together. Once your top is complete, it's up to you on how to baste, quilt and bind it. Don't worry; Bluprint has lots more classes to show you how!
