FOLDED FABRIC F-FF
Folded fabric is a technique we love using to create
stunning visual effects. Clean, crisp edges and a
seamless finish are easily accomplished with minimal
effort! This technique can be used in more than one
way: within appliqués like traditional paper piecing, as
borders in quilting collections, and even as the main
element for blocks. Folded fabric will always be digitized
to include 3 key steps: a placement stitch indicating
where the fabric will end up covering, a folding stitch
to create the clean edge on your fabric, and a tacking
stitch to secure it in place. Follow our handy tutorial
for the direction your fabric needs to be placed!
