How to Foundation Paper Piece a Quilt with Carol Doak | Bob Purcell from Superior Threads
(Show 602) World-renowned (and world-traveled) quilter, author, and teacher Carol Doak does an up-close demo of her "can't-miss" foundation-piecing methods. She also brings us photos and stories from her recent trip to Iceland, followed by a show and tell of wonderful quilts. There's more: Ricky shows how to use thread to embellish a block featuring a photo-transferred image, with an assist from The Thread Guy (Bob Purcell), who explains a variety of thread finishes. If that weren't enough, Bunny Rose opens The Quilt Show Treasure Chest to reveal some nifty notions, and Ricky treats us to his piano rendition of "The TQS Theme."
