Open Up a World of Design by Making Your Own!
Do you have a special motif in mind for quilting your quilt? While you often can find templates and such online, sometimes you’ll want to make your own.
That’s especially true for borders and other areas that requires motifs of a special size and spacing. Templates are also helpful in staying consistent throughout the process of quilting a quilt, whether or not you’re using a special motif.
Jen from Quilting by Jen has written two excellent tutorials showing how to make and use tissue paper templates. She uses a roll of tissue paper like that used on examining tables in doctors’ offices. Here’s a similar product that’s inexpensive and nicely sized for borders and other large areas (small ones, too).
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!
