Amish Homemade Quilt Facts

For hundreds of years, various kinds of strategies have been perfected to make it less complicated for quilters to stitch multi-angled quilts together. One of these techniques is called paper piecing, which is normally employed to assemble the challenging points of the Mariner's Compass quilts. Paper piecing, as it name illustrates, uses an unique paper pattern on top of which the fabric pieces are sewn. The pattern directs the needleworker to properly stitch the pieces together so that the completed top will lie out flat. Procedures such as this are a marvelous help to our quilt-makers!
