Creating Your Own Crypto Quilts

Ever dreamed of making your own Crypto Quilts? Making quilts is a very popular hobby and it's becoming more popular with each passing year. If you're wondering how you can begin the great adventure of making your own quilts, take a moment to read the following helpful information that I've compiled for you today. There are some simple steps to follow when you first begin to make a Quilt.

Fabric. The first thing you'll need to purchase to make your first Crypto Quilt is the fabric. For starters, you may want to have one or two colors of fabric on hand and use it as a base. For example, if you want your quilt to be red, you'll need red fabric, but if you want your quilt to be white, you'll need white fabric.

Stitch Set. Next you'll need to get your basic quilting stitch set and begin to stitch. Stitching is the foundation of a good quilt. Each time you sew, it creates a new path for the thread to follow. This creates a line that your quilt creates.

Color. Before you start stitching, you need to decide what color you are going to use. Always remember to pick a solid color. There is no sense in choosing multiple colors if the only reason you have chosen them is for fashion purposes. By sticking with one solid color, you are able to create a more accurate border for your new Crypto Quilt.

Fabric Needle. Another important tool to have when you're first starting out making your Crypto Quilts are a needle and threader. A needle and threader will allow you to get the stitches into the desired spot, which can prevent you from having to go back and try again if you accidentally miss the first time.

Spot Marker. When you are stitching the fabric, you will want to make sure that you always have an exact location to sew at. If you're unable to get it into place at that exact spot, chances are you'll be unable to continue with the rest of the project.

Q-Tip. One of the most important tools to have when you are sewing a quilt is a Q-Tip. Having one or two Q-Tips will ensure that you always have one available to help you stitch without having to worry about your stitches becoming messy.

There are so many different types of needles that you can get to help you with your crypto quilts. Keeping a Q-Tip with you at all times will help you make your quilts quickly and easily.
