APQS Video Tutorial: Daisy Brambles

It only takes a tiny spark to ignite a quilter’s inspiration. Many of us have found a focal fabric we love and designed a quilt top around it. That’s what happened with this quilt, but this time the focal fabric didn’t come from a 44-inch-wide bolt.

Now midarm and longarm machines are available in compact sit-down table versions or small stand-up “hoop frame” models. These can take up as little as 10-15 square feet of space—great for tight quarters.

Crosshatching is no longer the traditional quilting technique of yesteryear. A few slight adjustments and additions to the design can elevate this basic design and your quilts!

In this APQS Video Tutorial APQS Educator and Dealer Angela Huffman shares a filler design that is based on the tradition peacock or headband filler. It just has a double loop at the top - we call it the Peacock Eye filler.
