Patchwork for quilts and wearing apparel, formerly put together
with hand stitching, can be quickly pieced and decorated at
the same time by using the featherstitch. Joinings are both
flexible and durable when this method is used.
Procedure:
• Cut a fabric underlay to size. Baste a light layer of padding
to underlay if a quilted effect is desired.
• Prepare patches, turning under 6 mm ('A inch) seam allow
ance. On non-woven fabric this step is not necessary.
• Baste patches to underlay in arrangement desired, butting
all edges.
0 Stitch in lengthwise and crosswise rows, allowing stitches
to straddle patches.
