Precut Quilts Book (ePub)

Your Go-To Guide to Discover The Intricacies of Quilting Using Precut Fabric

The art of sewing, over the years, has provided the clothes that men needed, but then, there came a time when man needed more than covering. There was a greater need for embellishments, warmth, and a thicker outfit. It was at this time that the crafting of quilts came into being. Quilts produced much thicker and exquisite final products. Several layers of materials were often quilted together to form the quilts, such as the quilt top, the batting, and the backing material.

However, quilting came with its own challenges. There was the issue of cutting out a hundred squares of fabric, making almost flawless dimension calculations, working with machines whose needle had to be sharp enough to pierce several layers of fabric and other thicker batting materials like cotton and bamboo fibers.
One of the solutions came through the advent of precut fabric. Precuts are already cut fabric with pre-measured dimensions that can be employed directly when working on quilting projects.

Precuts allowed quilters the flexibility and time to sew through the three layers than the actual sewing processes did; only a few times did one need to trim or carry out any other cutting-related procedure. Precuts come in the form of rolls of fabric, and these rolls are often known as collections. They contain one kind of fabric, and every patch usually blends with the others with respect to their hues, patterns, and designs. It was a perfect solution to half of the problems quilting presented.

The quilting machine was also introduced, and with that, more intricate and ornate designs could be made. However, even with all of these, we cannot overlook that the process of quilting requires working with several dimensions and measurements; a wrongly cut fabric could often lead to a whole project being ruined. Several considerations have to be catered for, and they include the ¿" allowance for the seams, dimensions for the quilt face-10" by 2", 4" by 3", and so on.
