Aren’t these little gems gorgeous? Carla shows you how to make them in her Fabric Inchie Tutorial. What are inchies you ask? Inchies are one inch quilts consisting of 3 primary layers: the backing, the middle layer and the top. They are fast and fun to do! You may also make Double Inchies- 2” x [...]

Lynn’s written this great tutorial from on making Inked Quilting Labels. Remember: a quilt isn’t finished until it’s labelled! Please don’t forget this very important piece. Someone, somewhere at some time in the future will be thrilled to know who made your creation, who it was for, why, and when.
