How to Do Precision Piecing with Sally Collins
(Show 1602) Teacher, author, and award-winning quilter Sally Collins has been sewing for a long time – long enough to develop the exacting methods that result in her stunning and technically flawless pieces. From her first quilt to her latest project, you'll enjoy the evolution of a detail-oriented quilter. Sally shares her secrets for creating perfect templates, including those you’ll need for unusually sized pieces and shapes. She also shares tips for precision chain piecing and perfectly ironed seams. We finish with a tour of the day’s location, Alden Lane Nursery in Livermore, CA, where Alex hosts the annual Quilting in the Garden event every September…and where Sally also receives an unexpected sweet surprise!
Visit: "Quilting in the Garden" at Alden Lane Nursery in Livermore, California.
