Loads of Fun Quilt Details

What fabrics are used in the quilt?
The Loads of Fun Quilt is made with 100% quilt shop quality cotton by Moda Fabrics and Riley Blake Designs. The majority of the fabrics are Lori Holt Basics.
What techniques are used to create the Loads of Fun Quilt?
You will enjoy stitching your pre-fused, laser cut applique pieces using either your Sewing Machine or your Embroidery Machine. Make sure to join the Loads of Fun Block of the Month Experience that matches the machine you will use for your applique – a sewing machine or an embroidery machine. (Here is a video about Sewing Machine Applique vs Embroidery Machine Applique.)
You will use your sewing machine to piece your quilt top together. You will also use your sewing machine and the provided Foundation Paper Piecing Templates to create perfect Flying Geese for your quilt borders. You’ll make several Flying Geese each month – easy peasy!
Upon completion of your Loads of Fun Quilt Top, you can complete your quilting as desired. You can choose to use your sewing machine or your longarm machine to quilt your quilt top, you can hand quilt your quilt top or you can send your quilt top to a professional longarmer to quilt your quilt top.
Is this a good BOM for beginners?
This is a great project for confident beginners all the way through advanced quilters. You will want to know the basics of using your sewing machine (or embroidery machine if you choose the Plus version). We will have video tutorials for the basic steps and put many, many step-by-step details into the monthly patterns.
We send you a FREE welcome gift when you join the Loads of Fun Block of the Month Experience. This adorable pincushion is not only fun to use all year while you make your quilt, it is also meant to serve as a quick way to practice your applique, piecing and foundation paper piecing skills!
