Description

Angela and Paula continue to share with us their varied approach to producing this classic favourite.  Both enjoy using different threads and stitches. Angela explains (and shows) how the different thicknesses of thread make a difference. You can use  some of these on the sewing machine, others might need to be couched onto the surface on the project. You will avoid having the thread going through the work.

Traditionally, all the seams of a crazy patchwork piece would have been embellished either with stitch or other embellishments, such as lace or applique. But if there are no raw edges to cover/secure, then you can just make choices based on artistic merit (or what pleases you!)

Angela shows us how to stitch the Fly Stitch with variegated thread and also the laced running stitch. She has a very clever tip about the use of the needle. And finally we get to see how to create a French Knot- which is always useful.

Paula suggests using and playing with the pre-set stitches that many of the machines now come with. And even the humble zig-zag stitch is useful. You will notice that she does use her walking foot for this work.
