Quilt As You Go Starter Kit

The Quilt As You Go Handbook, authored by Pauline Rogers. It stands as an invaluable resource for quilters seeking practical solutions to the challenges of quilting large projects. Spanning 62 pages, this comprehensive guide is filled with vivid colour photos and step-by-step instructions.

Central to the handbook are Pauline’s signature Quilt As You Go (QAYG) techniques, which revolutionise the traditional quilting process. It meticulously details two primary methods: Between the Blocks and Back to Back, each accompanied by numerous variations. These techniques empower quilters to create individual quilt blocks and subsequently quilt them on a standard sewing machine. The final touch involves adding borders to complete the quilt top.

The handbook offers invaluable insights into mastering free motion quilting techniques, achieving optimal tension settings, and troubleshooting common quilting issues.

 The QAYG Handbook is written specifically to be easy to understand so anyone can give quilting a go. By breaking down the quilting process into manageable blocks, it eliminates the daunting task of manoeuvring a large quilt through the confined space of a sewing machine. This approach not only simplifies the quilting journey but also fosters confidence and creativity among quilters of all levels.

The Quilt As You Go Handbook by Pauline Rogers is more than a guidebook. It serves as a companion empowering quilters to embark on and successfully complete their quilting projects with precision, ease, and a sense of accomplishment. It’s a testament to Pauline’s expertise and dedication to sharing her innovative techniques with the quilting community worldwide.

Looking for the Sasher Collection Large Set with 10 Sashers? It has been upgraded to the Ultimate Set with 12 Sashers!!

• Sizes ½" to 2½" can be used to create stunning and accurate Sashings.
• The Fluro yellow ones are the most popular for Quilt As You Go Sashings (1 ½", 2", 2½" & 3").
• The Orange ones are fantastic to fold the binding strips for the edge of your quilt (2½" & 2¼"). If you cut your binding 2½" wide you will use the 1¼" Sasher tool. If you cut your binding 2¼" wide for a thinner binding you will use the 1⅛" Sasher tool.
• The Pink ones are fantastic for those who want to do trims on garments (3/4" & 1").
• And the Blue ones are brilliant for those who want to make bias for stems or trimmings around appliqué (1/2", 1/4" & 1/8").
• The Magic Binding Sasher Tool is the quickest and most precise way to make your binding with a peeper/flange.

Designed to help make stunning sashings for Quilt As You Go quilts, the Ultimate Sasher Collection has a total of 12 different sized Sashers, including 1/8", 1/4", 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1 1/8", 1 1/4", 1 1/2", 2", 2 1/2" and 3" wide and the Magic Binding Tool.

The Sasher Collection Ultimate Set also allows you to make:

• very fine bias strips for applique and Celtic designs
• peepers to highlight sashings
• sashings with corner stones
• bias strips for stems
• double fold binding to bind quilts
• make your binding with a peeper/flange

You will notice that the sides of the Sasher have a curved shape. This is so the curved edge of an iron can neatly fit against the Sasher as you push it along; Which means no more burnt fingers! Pauline recommends using the mini iron as it fits perfectly in the curve of the Sasher.

Please note - the size on the Sasher is the finished size of the folded strip. For example, if you require a 2" finished size, cut the fabric 4" wide and then put through the 2" Sasher.

The Sasher Collection Set won the Industry Innovation Award in the 2015 Australian Craft Industry Awards.

Roxanne Glue Baste-It stands out as a versatile and effective tool in the realm of quilting and fabric crafts. Crafted as a 100% water-soluble fabric glue, it offers the convenience of easy cleanup since it washes out completely. This feature ensures that the glue does not leave any residue behind. This preserves the integrity and feel of your fabric projects.

One of its remarkable qualities is its versatility in application. Roxanne Glue Baste-It can be set either with a hot iron or left to air dry for 20 to 30 minutes. This flexibility allows crafters to choose the method that best suits their project and timeline. Once set, the glue holds fabrics firmly in place until you decide to release it. This provides a secure bond without causing stiffness in the fabric.

Designed by Pauline Rogers, the glue comes with a practical two-way applicator. Upon removing the lid, users find a precision tip that facilitates accurate application for tasks like appliqué, securing chenille strips, or adhering quilt binding. This replaces the need for traditional pins in many applications. Conversely, flipping the glue reveals a sponge applicator under the base. This is ideal for spreading the glue evenly across larger surfaces such as quilt sashings in Quilt As You Go projects.

A notable advantage of using Roxanne Glue Baste-It is its cost-effectiveness and time-saving benefits. By substituting it for products like Vliesofix or traditional pinning methods, crafters can streamline their workflow without compromising on quality. This makes it a preferred choice among quilters and sewists alike who value efficiency without compromising precision.

Roxanne Glue Baste-It is not just a fabric glue; it's a game-changer in how fabric assembly and crafting can be approached. With its innovative design, ease of use, and reliable performance, it continues to earn its reputation as a must-have tool in any sewing or quilting toolkit.
