How to Make a Quilt - The Fundamentals
Quilt making is a creative art which has achieved prominence over the last few decades. This in fact is a very ancient art form which was traditionally restricted within certain communities and territories. It originated as a necessity but gradually evolved into an occupation. The craft of quilt making being restricted to communities was perfected over generations. However, with the patronage of vocational institutes and art colleges quilt making is now a recognized craft.
Quilt making could be done at a domestic level or at an industrial level. A beginner before learning to make a quilt must become familiar with related terminologies such as their styles, fabrics, color, quilt kits and its tools. Fair understanding of these aspects would help in learning ‘how to make a quilts'.
Styles - The quilts styles and its characteristic are of a particular place or event. A proper understanding of this subject would help you to develop your own independent style. This is important for creating an identity. As quilt making is an art form it is important that you develop a distinctive style. Christmas quilts, civil war quilts inspired by American Civil War, Amish quilts originating from Amish tribe, Maranao quilts related to people of Lanao in the Philippines island of Mindanao, to memory quilts based on family events, photo memory quilts based on photographs, and scrap quilts made from leftover fabrics are popular quilt styles.
Fabrics - Fabric for making quilts should be colorfast. Before using a fabric for weaving, it must to be washed, to run out the color. This fabric is essentially the base upon which the quilt is woven or sewn. In all probabilities it should be tight and strong so that it can last for many years. Quilts in many cases last lifelong even after regular use. Cotton is the most preferred of all lining fabrics. Synthetic fiber or mixed lining may also be chosen but that requires experienced weaving hands. Crepes, stretches, and knits should be avoided as quilt linings.
Color - Quilts colors are often ignored, but it's an important aspect in making them. For a cool feeling blue suits best as quilt lining, while yellow and red lends a warm feel. A white lining brightens up the interior while black might be used for a subdued effect.
Kits - This is imperative for quilt making. Quilt kits are available in ‘blocks'. Beginners should buy on block a month so that they can learn the art with ease. These kits contain all information regarding quilt making. The basics are given in form of simple instructions for easy learning. As a beginner's guide some designs, fabric choices and colors are also provided. Separate kits are available for experienced weavers. ‘Blocks' for different purposes are available for convenience of trained quilters. For example, there are separate blocks for pillow cases, bed covers, and rugs.
Tools - Quilt making is both a skill and creative art. However for proper development of this skill certain tools are necessary. For hand weaving pins, hoops and needles are must. Fabric markers are also essential. For machine weaving quilting machines, machine needles, frames, and rotary cutters are required.
