Delaware Quilts


I'm often asked how do you do this, or how did you do that? Maybe I have the answer to your question here. If you have a quilting question that isn't answered here please ask. I will do my best to answer you, or point you to someone who can.

How to set a quilt diagonally, includes helpful math for those corners and side triangles.

Do you have trouble when it come to deciding the value of your fabric? I don't mean it's cost, I mean it's color value... is it light, medium or dark? Hopefully this page will help you better understand value, and contrast.

Need to know how big to make a quilt? Check here.

Four lessons on how to make triangle squares (Diagonal Half Squares or Half Square Triangles which ever you call them.)
Lesson one - Defines a DHS or HST and includes some interesting quilters math hints.
Lesson two - How to make just two DHSs or HSTs
Lesson three - Making lots of the same DHSs or HSTs
Lesson four - Don't lose your points

Need to understand the "math" of quilt blocks? See if this helps.

How I attach a sleeve to a wall hanging.

Swaps - No I am not hosting any swaps right now and haven't for a very long time. But on this page you will find what I think is helpful information on hosting a swap. There are also two pages on past swaps, and one showing how I went about doing the swap. Swaps can be great fun if they are handled right and I hope my directions help you if you are thinking of doing a swap. FYI.... Don't ask me about appliqué or paper piecing... I don't do either, LOL!
