Hand Quilting Tools - carolyn friedlander

Here are some of my favorite tools, threads and supplies for hand quilting. I love to hand quilt my projects because it is relaxing as well as a great way to add color and texture. // As with all handwork supplies, find what works for you! There's no need being uncomfortable in the process. Thread

Bow is an appliqué project inspired by the elegant arcs of a rainbow. This beginner-friendly, radiant design is a good one for exploring color, contrast and accents. It works with Fat Quarters, Fat Eights and 10 squares. Project sizes include 43.5 x 43.5 Wall, 36 x 38.5 Baby and 63.5 x 74 Throw. Instructions are for needle-turn appliqué, but other appliqué techniques can be used as well.

The Hunt quilt pattern is a simple but striking explosion of color in a series of gentle, repeated shapes. The design can take on any number of looks depending on the fabric selection. Cover project features fabrics from my Harriot collection in all colors and patterns, while secondary project shows you how to make use of a special border print in a very different approach. Don't miss out on the Hunt Acrylic Templates for use with this project.

Tangelo is triangles made easier. I'm not one for working with special rulers or doing a ton of precise pre-cutting, which is why paper-piecing is an attractive way to tackle this project! In the cover sample I incorporated a variety of substrates, so it's got loads of texture going on. Another fun project idea with this quilt would be to incorporate text into the triangles using free motion quilting or embroidery to create personalized bunting.
