Want a quilt top that stays square while you piece? Try these simple tips: 1️⃣ Starch before you cut Lightly starch and press your fabric before cutting. It adds just enough body to keep pieces from stretching and helps everything stay crisp and square. 2️⃣ Cut accurately (slow is fast) If your pieces are even a hair off, your quilt can start to skew. Line up your ruler carefully, double-check your measurements, and use a sharp rotary blade. 3️⃣ Use a consistent 1/4” seam A true, consistent 1/4”

Starching your fabric before cutting out your pieces will improve your accuracy in quilting more than you think. It wasn’t like I was a starch hater, I just had no idea how useful it would be! My points were sharper, seam allowance easier to achieve and pressing seams was so much easier. It doesn’t have to be fancy starch. Just buy a can of starch at the grocery store and give it a try. If you’re like me, it just might change your quilting life! What’s one tip or tool you wish you knew about soo

Before you cut out your quilt pattern pieces, spray your fabric with starch. The grocery store kind works great. Or use a fancier (and often better smelling) version. Press to set the starch- but don’t iron the fabric- you don’t want to stretch or distort it. You will be amazed at the difference in your results. At least I was. It was like I became a new quilter overnight. When in doubt- add starch. Pattern shown is my Happy Cherry table runner- available in my Let’s Sew Friends membership. Coup

If you’re working with lots of bias edges (like in Half-Square Triangles or Disappearing blocks), give your fabric a light starch before cutting. It helps keep the pieces from stretching and your points stay sharp. Do you starch before cutting or after piecing? 👇 | TeresaDownUnder

Lessons from the Longarmer #1 - When to starch and not starch! I tell my customers all the time to use a dry iron while piecing and this video demonstrates why. I want really crisp pressed seems and I used to piece then spray either a bit of water or starch on my pieces and press the seem allowance but my blocks were always either wonky, too small or both and this is why. If you want crisp fabric to piece with, starch BEFORE YOU DO YOUR CUTTING. I want to add this: I do not usually starch my fab

I’ve been pressing a lot of precut strips lately and trying to speed up the starching / pressing process and this worked well! By the way, I’ve recently updated my pressing post with instructions for building a custom quilters ironing board. If you’re wanting to press with no distortion and have more accurate quilt blocks a s cutting, a firm pressing board is key!

I must confess, even though I’ve been quilting for many years, it is only recently that I have begun starching my fabric before use. In doing so, I have found two advantages, which has really changed the way I piece my quilts. 1. Once pressed, there’s less movement in the fabric and less stretch. 2. The fabric, one cut, is less likely to fray along the raw edge when handled. It’s because of this, my blocks come together neater, and I’m happier with my quilts. #quiltersofinstagram #modernquilting

I make my own homemade starch to use on all my fabrics that I am going to be cutting on the diagonal & I do t want to deal with the stretch. No flaking, no nonsense! And most likely you have most if not all these ingredients already in your house!!! I thought it sounded almost like a thin metal sheet!!

Save this post for the next time you want to try this! 💡 Here are some tips for cutting multiple layers of fabric at once: 1. press and starch fabrics before getting started 2. use a fresh, new rotary blade 3. at least a 45 mm rotary blade; anything smaller might not fit all the layers of fabric 4. double check measurements (wouldn’t it be something to cut everything incorrectly all at once? 😅) 5. turn cutting mat instead of fabric (keeps edges aligned better and is quicker) 6. if you don’t ha
