Fantastic Easy Quilt Pattern Tip

Are you looking for an easy quilt pattern that gives your patchwork a professional look? I have come across a great system that lets you create your quilt easily and the finished quilt not only matches but usually exceeds your expectations.

If you are wanting to see Marti Michell demonstrating her templates then go to Marti Michell's videos.




What makes this Perfect Patchwork 4-Inch Template Set B, Basic Square Set, Package of Seven so fantastic and easy to use is their corner concept. Each corner is cut on the angle which means cutting pieces that match perfectly – no pinning or guessing required, and no more 'dog ears' or chunky areas in your quilt. The thick acrylic templates mean you can rotary-cut multiple layers of fabric at one time. (I recommend cutting up to six layers at a time). Combined with perfectly-sewn 1/4" (6mm) seams, you’ll be making more quilts, more easily and more quickly!

For me the benefits are:

  • Economical fabric use
  • Perfect corners
  • Cut multiple layers of fabric at one time
  • No pinning necessary as the templates have double blunt corners for perfect alignment
  • 1/8-inch thick, clearly marked acrylic pieces, no guessing which line to use on a ruler
  • 1/4-inch seam allowances already added
  • Straight of the grain marked
  • See your project develop before you sew and adjust colorways if necessary
  • Easy to follow steps
  • Can be reused again and again to create different quilts

What more can one ask for!!

I have met several quilters who have bought some of these templates and not known how to use them. Watching Marti's video demonstrations solves all the frustration that can happen. I took a course showing how to use them and was in love immediately. What a difference a bit more information can make!
