Here I've taken images of examples of piping and stuffing
technique used in quilt making, these were some examples I got to see in my
first quilt making session in order to have a broader understanding of how to
do certain techniques in quilt making. The first two images contain examples of
a way to create a type of piping effect by creating equally spaced stitch lines
and then pulling a chunky yarn in between the two layers. I think this
technique is very interesting as you could include a variety of objects or
fibres as the piping between the fabrics, this could change the effect easily
if thicker, harder objects were to be used as the piping. These examples look
extremely quaint and somehow fragile as the piping or stuffing of the examples is
a soft chunky yarn. This technique is shown to be used in both very different
way as the first two examples show a more structure and geometric effect, whereas
the last two images is created more elegantly using the method to create a
loose, delicate floral pattern. These examples of quilt making has inspired me
to research more into creating a structural and bold type of sample, this
effect could maybe be created by using heavier, harder, thicker stuffing/piping
or maybe by creating a more structural geometric print using this technique.
