Top 10 Tips for Quilt Piecing and Patchwork with Tommy Romano
(Show 1104) Tommy Romano, Texas quilter and teacher in Santa Fe, New Mexico, shares his top ten tips—or "ten commandments"—for precision piecing. It's more than just for beginning quilters. Preparation, appropriate tools and their maintenance, technique… even the proper state of mind—Tommy puts his precise approach to work while demonstrating a new twist on the traditional Nine Patch block. You'll learn a bunch and love the results! The episode comes to an "artful" conclusion as Peter Stoessel, executive director of our day's location, the beautiful Blue Rain Gallery, takes us on a tour of the site, which features regional and non-regional art by top Native American artists.
