What is a Pieced Quilt By Melissa Dunworth. There are so many types of quilts one of the most basic is a pieced quilt. The simplest definition of a pieced quilt is any quilt made up of different fabrics sewn together. A pieced quilt is also commonly referred to as a Patchwork Quilt due to the patchwork like effect the different fabrics give the quilt. It can be any type of block and virtually any construction technique Half Square Triangles, Tumblers, Strips, you name it.

Pieced quilts can be themed or scrappy, they can be planned or unplanned, they can be vintage inspired or modern, they can be from patterns or free form wonky, etc. Examples of pieced quilts include Quilts made of one block sewn multiple times in different fabrics and rotated to create a design an example includes a Log Cabin Quilt. Sampler Quilts where you make a specific number of pieced quilt blocks and sew them together an example of this would be the Farmers Wife Quilts. Jelly Roll Quilts where you take the strips from a jelly roll and sew them together into a quilt top, add borders and you are done an example would be the Jelly Roll Race 1. Quilt. Postage stamp quilts are assembled entirely of squares ranging from 1 to 2. Hexagon quilts, typically sewn by hand, are also an example of a pieced quilt these tend to be heirloom quilts due to the handwork involved.

As your host and a quilter that is passionate about appliqu, I wanted to talk about this style of quilt. Appliqu is the process of placing shapes onto a background and then sewing them to the background with one of a various number of hand or machine techniques. The quilts can be anything from a Bed Quilt to a table runner. I love appliqu because it gives me the total freedom of creating any type of shape by simply drawing it. I dont have to draft or make things meet. I make a heart, cut it out. Backgrounds have often been solid pieces of fabric of light color, but I enjoy appliqu on a pieced background and make that background sing with some printed fabrics Appliqu has been around since early times anything from a Fancy Baltimore Album quilt like this reproduction of the Mary Mannakee now in the collection of The International Quilt Study Center and Museumto my simple Spring Chicks table runner that is quick and whimsicalMy Whig rose is a sample of how I take a traditional design, make it big, put it onto printed fabric and go I love putting this quilt on my bed. One thought and really listen. If you have tried appliqu in the past and not liked it. There are so many ways to appliqu which well explore for a whole month later this year PS come take my machine appliqu workshop and I will show you the easiest way ever. I make believers every time I teach it. Your appliqu crazy host. Pat Sloan. Baltimore album IQSC Object Number 2. E Art Quilts. By Susan Brubaker Knapp What is an art quiltFirst and foremost, an art quilt is simply art a way of creating beauty, telling a story, conveying an intense emotion, recording an important event, or commenting on social issues. Art is a way for human beings to show how differently they see and interpret things, and an art quilt is no different. An art quilts purpose is to be used as art it is designed to inspire, not to keep you warm at night. An art quilts style can be abstract or realistic. It often uses materials that are unusual in traditional quilts paint, metal, Angelina fibers, or Tyvek, to name a few, and may be three dimensional. It may employ surface design and construction techniques that are not used in traditional quilting. Unlike traditional quilts, which often use blocks that have been passed down for a hundred years or more, art quilts are original artistic statements. Does it ignite your emotions or make you think about things in a different way Its probably an art quilt. Do you hang it on your wall, rather than sleep under it at night Its probably an art quilt.
