Quilt makers can create their own quilt tops completely from scratch, or they can utilize already placed together quilt tops. One way to make a quilt top is to purchase sets of quilt blocks and to piece together the squares of quilting fabric using your own pattern designs. Some traditional quilt makers like to make quilts based on traditional designs from quilting's heyday, such as log cabin patterns or pin wheel patterns. You can also purchase completed quilt tops and simply finish them by adding the back and borders. Some of us love quilting, but simply do not have the time to create quilts from scratch. In this case, you can purchase beautiful quilt tops fairly inexpensively and then customize them. This is a great idea if you would like to create several quilts to give as gifts during the holiday season. Pre-made quilt tops can also be taken apart and then pieced together again in your own pattern or design. There are also preprinted quilt fabrics, which are designed to be used as quilt tops. Some of these exhibit popular themes such as Disney characters. They make charming choices when creating quilts for newborn babies and children. Vintage quilt tops promote a sense of tradition. You can find popular quilt patterns that have been around for centuries. One of the great things about quilting is there is always room to grow. Each new quilt that you make allows you to gain experience, but it also allows you to leave evidence of your learning experiences behind for others to enjoy. |
