Worksheets are the part of quilting nobody sells and everybody needs. Practising a motif on paper before you put it on a finished top is the…

Drills, not a project, and that is the right way to learn free-motion. Ten minutes of tracing before you touch the quilt saves the whole top.…

The classic use-up-the-offcuts project, and one of the few where a handmade version beats the shop one on fabric alone. One seam, one channel, elastic through,…

Booties are small, which cuts both ways: little fabric, but the curves are tight and you will be easing seams. Worth the patience because they are…

Holly is forgiving applique: the leaves are simple shapes and the berries hide any wobble in the edge stitch. Reads as Christmas instantly without being a…

Modern patchwork means big pieces and clean lines, which is also what makes it a sane place to start quilting. Fewer seams, less matching, far less…

Doll clothes are fiddly on purpose, and they are the best cheap practice you can get at tiny hems and real fastenings. Nothing has to fit…
