Try This Tip for Precision Piecing

Quilting Digest | May 15, 2019 | Quilting How-To

It Works Great for Pieces of All Sizes!

Lisa Bongean of Primitive Gatherings, well-known quilt and fabric designer, creates beautifully pieced quilts of all sizes. She excels at achieving precise piecing, even with very small pieces.

How does she do it? Her number one tip is … starch. More importantly, it’s when to starch and how much to use.

“Memory of a Masterpiece” quilt pattern is in Red & White Quilts.

Watch as she demonstrates her starching technique in the following video. She does a great job of explaining when, how and why starch helps her achieve impeccable piecing. You may never think of starch the same way again.

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
