Tackling the craft of quilting

Quilting has been a popular craft for hundreds of years in many cultures around the world. Quilts can be used for warmth, for decorative reasons such as in a wall hanging, and in some ancient civilizations the pictures in the fabric squares portrayed stories.

Quilts often become family heirlooms, passed down through generations. A handmade quilt makes a beautiful gift for a newborn baby or for someone special.

A quilt consists of three fabric panels - the backing, the middle wadding and the top piece which is made up of several individual fabric squares sewn together.

When you first take up the craft of quilting, the terminology can be baffling and setting yourself up with a range of fabrics and all the necessary equipment can be a little daunting.

A good place to begin in order to reduce the complexity and cost of your new quilting hobby, is to visit your local Spotlight store or shop online at Spotlight and purchase a quilting kit.

What will I find in a quilting kit?

Spotlight's quilting kits such as the Birch Start to Quilt Kit contain some basic quilting essentials.

A cutting mat and a cutting tool are must-haves, as are safety pins, quilting pins and quilting needles. A quilter's pencil and a special quilting ruler complete the kit. Add to that a selection of fat flats, jelly rolls and charm packs, your choice of wadding and backing material, along with a sewing or quilting machine and you are well on your way to creating your first unique quilted masterpiece!

For beginners Spotlight's Squares Simple Quilts Kit 110 x 110 cm or the Triangle Simple Quilts Kit 90 x 108 cm in 100% cotton are easy fabrics to get started with.
