Quilting or patchwork is a huge part of what we offer here at Calico Laine. There is just something so special about making a patchwork quilted piece. It's also a lovely way to bring that handmade touch to your home. Quilting techniques can be used to make patchwork quilts and throws in an endless combination of colours and shapes. Sometimes starting a big project like a patchwork quilt can feel a little intimidating, so why not start with a pretty cushion cover? We guarantee you will be hooked in no time!
Quilting Fabrics
Here at Calico Laine we have a large range of craft cottons and fat quarters which are ideal for a variety of quilting projects. Craft cotton is a versatile, easy to work with fabric which washes well with a soft yet sturdy handle. We even have a beautiful brand new range of plain colours to suit every quilters taste! We are always updating our range of plains and stunning prints so there is always fresh inspiration for every sewing level.
Quilting Accessories
As well as a wide variety of fabrics, we have everything else you could need to finish your creation. From quilting templates to fabric markers and threads, we have everything to help you make from start to finish. Our selection of wadding is essential to putting the 'quilt' in quilting. Our favourites are our Iron on Cotton Wadding, or the incredibly soft Vilene Soya Mix wadding.
For a cuddly finishing touch, why not try backing your patchwork quilt with our cosy luxury fleece for the winter? We have a fab range of colours to match your quilt and to add that lovely warm touch.
Don't forget to send us photos of your creations, we count ourselves very lucky to have such talented customers and love to see what you all make!
