Create a springy placemat set featuring foundation paper pieced bee blocks that come together like a “quilting bee” on your table. Print the paper pieced bee patterns onto Sulky Paper Solvy, a water-soluble paper that is easily sewn through and removes completely without the need to tear away pesky bits after piecing. Moisten a cotton swab and run it along seamlines to lift away the paper sections carefully and accurately.

Rag Quilt that Glows in the Dark
Rag Quilt Tutorial for Beginner Quilters A Rag Quilt is named as such due to its ragged, or frayed, edges visible on the quilt top. Each block is assembled with the top, middle and backing fabrics quilted prior to construction. Then, the pieces are sewn with wrong sides together so the seam allowances are exposed and showing from the front. This creates a vintage-style look with extra comfy and plush textures. This featured Rag Quilt is quilted with Sulky Glowy Thread, so it glows in the dark once charged by a light source. This is a fun addition for a kid’s quilt or outdoor camping throw. For National Quilting Day,…
