How to Make A Color Wheel Quilt, Perfect Piecing, and Heirloom Looks by Machine with Lee Chappell Monroe
(Show 2910) Lee Chappell Monroe considers herself a ‘modernitionalist’ whose designs are a playful combination of traditional blocks with a modern twist. First, she shows Ricky how to expand your understanding of color (with a visual reminder) by making your own fabric color wheel. Then she shares with Alex, her "5 Tips Of The Trade" piecing tips for perfect flying geese, half-square triangles, partial seams, pressing, sashing and an easy ¼” guide on your thumb. Then, Lee continues her tips and tricks for creating an heirloom hand-stitched look using machine stitches.
