Beading and embellishing your quilts is an exciting way to add dimension and texture.

This video outlines how to make a Bead Coil, a technique that looks great on art quilts.

I hope that you will try this embellishment and be sure to send us some pictures!

Our site has taken off as expected

January came and went in the blink of an eye, but the cold weather decided to stay. We woke up to a chilling -35 today in Edmonton. My husband and I have been swamped with Quiltcetera.com. He does all the web stuff like building and managing the site and I prepare all the streaming content for our Live QuiltingTV. I have compiled a great list of tutorials for next week and am really excited to get back in front of the camera. I have to admit that I was shy at first but have really warmed up to the concept of live streaming video.

I have been answering emails like crazy and I hate to see all the great questions go to waste. I'm asking that everybody use our Interactive Q&A Forum to ask you questions. That way we will only have to answer most questions once and the rest of the new quilters who read our forum can learn from all the great questios and answers that appear there.

I will be selecting questions from our forum to use on our Live Quilting TV Stream. If your question is used on the show, you will recieve a free quilting gift from Quiltcetera.com. The last few ladies recieved free chenille cutters valued at $24. Here are their questions.


OUR MOST RECENT QUESTIONS:
1.
What is a good beginner project?
2.
How do I keep an accurate seam allowance?
3.
