In today’s mini-episode, we’re answering a question from patron Inês, who asked,
“Regarding quilting: which techniques are there for the quilt part? Hand quilt, machine quilt, sure, but what’s that thing with knots that sometimes people do? And when you hand quilt, do you go through all the layers or just the top and the batting? Special needles? Special thread? So many questions!”
We answer all of these and more – sharing a bunch of quilting methods, tools, and tips!
