How Quilt Sewing Kits Can Get You Crafting Right Away
Have you ever wanted to start quilting, but were intimidated by the amount of material, measuring, cutting, and supplies? Starting out quilting from scratch can seem daunting, but it doesn’t have to be — easy quilt kits for beginners come with everything you need to get started. Quilt sewing kits from Sit n’ Sew Fabrics even come with the backing and binding, so you have nothing to worry about!
Here’s how ready-to-sew quilt kits can make your quilting experience so much easier.
1. No Measuring Required
Measuring fabric for a quilt top without a quilt sewing kit can be challenging. You have to ensure your fabric has enough of a seam allowance to stitch together properly and look great with the backing and binding. Borders add another layer of complication: if they’re uneven or inconsistent, your quilt could end up looking messy. Even when following a pattern, measuring and marking fabric can be especially challenging.
Simple and easy quilt kits for beginners eliminate the measuring process. If you’re not one for numbers or precision, then you can avoid a lot of potential errors in the very first step with a quilt kit.
2. Everything is Cut Out
Any experienced quilter knows that cutting fabric can take just as much time as the sewing itself. If you want to quilt but can’t seem to find the time, then ready-to-sew quilt sewing kits can reduce roughly half of your total time spent quilting, so you can get straight to the fun part!
Mobility issues can also prevent quilters from using scissors and cutting precisely. In that case, these easy quilt kits aren’t just for beginners — avid quilters who have lost the ability to quilt due to physical limitations like arthritis can quilt once more with these ready-to-sew quilt kits.
As a bonus, you won’t waste nearly as much fabric. Machine-cut fabrics minimize discarded textiles and create less waste. Sounds like a win-win to us!
3. Forget the Color Coordination Hassle
If you’ve ever tried to create your own quilt pattern, then you know the joy (and struggle) of trying to get a hundred different colors and designs of quilt scraps to look “correct” together. It can truly be a labor of love to make sure every design and color scheme looks cohesive, especially when you’re working with scraps.
Pre-coordinated quilt sewing kits form a cohesive design that will never clash. Fabrics are typically from the same brand or product line, so they fit together seamlessly and look great from the get-go.
4. No Need to Create a Pattern
Seasoned quilters can fall in love with the challenge of arranging and designing their own quilt pattern. It’s a fun puzzle, but it’s tricky, and it can be overwhelming for novices. Easy quilt kits for beginners provide a pre-arranged design with easy-to-follow instructions.
Sit n’ Sew Fabrics offers ready-to-sew quilt kits in a huge variety of patterns and designs, from our novelty quilt sewing kits to classic Sandwiches, Log Cabins, and Dresden Plates. Anyone can find a design they love, and you don’t need any experience to get started.
