Quilting Your Quilt Relaunches Online Fabric & Pattern Store

BOTHELL, Wash. - July 22, 2013 - PRLog -- Quilt pattern and fabric ecommerce website Quilting Your Quilt has just relaunched their online store, which provides people around the world with quilting kits, patterns and batting. In an attempt to revive family tradition, they supply patterns and quilting ideas that invoke a more traditional period in time, and do so with options fit for lifetime quilting masters as well for those who are just starting out.

Quilting kits are packages that contain most or all of what you need to create your own quilt. The fabrics are generally pre-matched so that you can customize the pattern without having to worry about whether the colors and textures go together. These are ideal options for those who want to start a family project with the kids. Quilting your quilt contains kits that can be used to create patterns as well as story quilt kits and kits for quilts with large images or scenes. They even have some more artistic and complex quilting patterns that are meant to be hung on the wall as a display piece. Either way, the whole family can enjoy a quilt that everyone helped to create.

The patterns carried by Quilting Your Quilt mostly adhere to a traditional American style of quilt art. They stick to toned down or deep, neutral colors and simple repeating patterns. They also have a few patterns that create storyboards, also known as story quilts - a style that can be traced back to early America. They also have calendar patterns which have have a row for each month of the year. The patterns in each row use pictures to represent the different months, such as hearts for February and school supplies for September. For history buffs, they stock patterns that were popular during the Civil War era. The Civil War Battle Series features a pattern for each of the sites of famous Civil War battles. These are ideal for reenactments or historical societies.

Quilt batting is the insulating material that goes between the top and bottom layers of the quilt fabric. It’s essential for making quilts that trap body heat and are ideal for snuggling under during the cold winter months. Though some quilts, referred to as summer quilts, leave out this fabric, most contain some type of batting. Quilting Your Quilt stocks a few different types of batting to help you customize your quilt to your preferences. They have the classic warm and soft cotton batting as well as polyester batting - which is still warm but not nearly as heavy. They also have blended cotton-poly fabrics if you’re looking for a balance. If you’re looking for something eco-friendly, they have bamboo batting which is made from renewable sources with green manufacturing. It’s also antibacterial and incredibly breathable, plus it’s durable and resists bunching.

Nothing brings the family together like a project that everyone can contribute to. http://quilting-your-quilt.com attempts to bring back an old family tradition by providing options for quilting projects that not only allow everyone to offer their own unique creative perspectives, but can be enjoyed by the whole family once it’s done.
