How to Make a Mariner's Compass Quilt with Robin Long | Learn Secrets to Serger Success with Pam Mahshie

(Show 3109) Robin Long has been fascinated with the Mariner’s Compass quilt design since 1992 when she made it as a gift for her husband. The idea of simplifying the complex pattern for quilters led to the development of using strip-piecing and rulers to make the construction simpler and less daunting for quilters. Join us as she shares the ins and outs of constructing a block she says is as easy as "pie".

Then, BERNINA Serger Expert Pam Mahshie will have you amazed when you see how the serger can save you time and effort when it comes to piecing, attaching binding, and mimicking big stitch quilting using decorative thread.

Great program. Loved the strip piecing idea. Have you considered finding someone to do a show on Seminole patchwork? It is strip piecing at its finest. The Seminole tribe in Florida probably weren’t the first strip piecers in the world, but maybe...

Great program. Loved the strip piecing idea. Have you considered finding someone to do a show on Seminole patchwork? It is strip piecing at its finest. The Seminole tribe in Florida probably weren’t the first strip piecers in the world, but maybe the first in our country, Their designs are remarkable. They made the patchwork strips into clothing for themselves and to sell. I have learned much and loved every minute of your shows.
