One Stitch Quilting The Basics includes:
I have seen Donna Dewberries' PBS TV show and these projects are similar to what she does there. She give instructions for HER fast quick method of finishing the quilt and she gave a more traditional method to finish the quilt projects. To me her quick and easy methods look TACKY and HOME MADE. The quilt projects are disappointing.
I was curious to see what kind of techniques my favorite painting lady would suggest when it comes to quilting. It appears it's based on fuseable web and grids, and then once everything is laid out, it's sewn. That seems a little less fun to me, than actually piecing squares, although I'm sure it's much easier. It was an interesting concept, but I think I'm more likely to start out with a traditional quilt when I start back up.
The photos are definitely dated, but the idea of using fusible web batting to hold quilt pieces where you want them & then sewing them using a decorative or blanket stitch is interesting. Probably best for wall hangings or display quilts--not those intended for regular use.
