 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.
