On January 2009 I decided to sew a\npatchwork for my daughter. So..the woman that means me, rushed with a hoe on\nthe sun (this is a very much polish expression <\/em>\ud83d\ude09). This could not be just any ordinary<\/p>\n\n\n\n

patchwork, oh no. Absolutely not. This had to be a stained-glass patchwork straight from the heart.<\/em> I found the design in a coloring book I saw online. I printed it out, glued the pieces together, and got to<\/em> work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each heart was cut out, outlined on the fabric and cut out again. And then I realized I did not have the whole drawing, only the small section.  Excellent <\/em>\ud83d\ude0a now what? So, I had to print out the missing part and glue it again. Finally, I have the whole layout, but how am I supposed to connect them on a slant so that they do not fall apart. Tell me how?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eureka! I used one sided, lightweight fusible web (back then, I did not know, that there is two-sided fusible web). I placed down the fusible web on the design, pinned down with pins, arranged my hearts and glued them down by pressing on them with a hot iron. And then everything was pinned and stitched. The wavy lines were made from soutache and stitched using zig-zag stitch. <\/p>\n\n\n

Finally, the quilting time. After I\nfinished this job, I threw out of my Lucznik. Never again. I must admit that I\nalways hated that sewing machine, and still do. Although back in those days, it\nwas rather good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I bought a new sewing machine, the\nBernina Q440 Quilters Edition, and fell in love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
