The
Art of Stitching
Quilt designs and patterns can be incredible works of art. In
Katherine’s Quilt, Momma uses decorative stitches to embellish
the seams of the quilt. Decorative stitches like the Briar Stitch,
Feather Stitch, and Lazy Daisy Stitch are an art form in
themselves. Students can learn the various stitching techniques to
embellish a piece of cloth. Quilt squares and stitches may be
combined to create miniature pieces of textile art.
