Beginner quilt for new baby...?
Hi,
I had a baby girl in March and I have recently been thinking about making her a quilt for her crib. I have a sewing machine and Ive taught myself quite a few things on my own, but I've never tried making a quilt before. I would appreciate any tips that any of you may have. I could probably figure how to do it on my own, but it always comes out nicer when you do it the correct way! =)
The easiest quilt is just large squares sewn together. For a little more interest, I'd suggest starting with a Rail Fence block. You can vary the appearance by changing the number and width of the rails, and through your fabric choices. See the first link below for inspirational photos.
I recommend using a rotary cutter, an acrylic ruler, and a cutting mat. It is so much easier to cut the fabric quickly and accurately. Start with a 45mm cutter. I like the Olfa one with a curved squeeze grip because when you let go, the blade is automatically retracted. ALWAYS RETRACT OR COVER THE BLADE WHEN YOU FINISH CUTTING A PIECE OF FABRIC. I cannot stress this enough. I know too many people who've gone to the emergency room for rotary cutter injuries. Start with an acrylic ruler that is 6" x 12" or, if you can find one, 6 1/2" x 12 1/2". The extra half inch will make it so much easier if you're doing 6" finished blocks, because it includes the extra 1/2" seam allowance. Finally, get a self healing mat - the thin green ones (although I've seen them in blue and pink as well). Watch for these to go on sale at craft stores like Jo-Ann Fabrics, Hancock Fabrics, Hobby Lobby, etc.
To make a finished 6" rail fence block with three rails, choose three distinctly different fabrics. You may choose three shades of one color or three completely different colors. Cut a 2 1/2" strip the width of the fabric (selvage to selvage). Cut off the selvages. Sew the three strips together, side by side, using a 1/4" seam. Try to keep the seam very accurate. Press the seams to one side. Now cut that into blocks that are the same width as the sewn strips are high. In this case, they should be 6 1/2". Lay out the blocks on a table or the floor so the are going the same direction. Now turn every other block 1/4 turn clockwise. You'll see a step or woven pattern emerge. Repeat the strips and blocks until it's the size you want. Sew your blocks together into rows, then sew your rows together.
I really recommend getting a good beginner quilting book like "Start Quilting with Alex Anderson," and a good reference book like "The Quilter's Ultimate Visual Guide." Take them to a copy center (Kinko's, Staples, Office Max, etc) and have them cut the binding off and replace it with a spiral binding. This will let you lay the book flat or turn it back to the page you want.
Finally, check out HGTV's website for videos from Simply Quilts, as well as QNNTV.
