c Fabric ............................................... We recommend 100% cotton that is not too thick.

c Quilt batting ..................................... Normally, medium-thick 100% polyester batting is used.

There is also cotton batting.

c Thread .............................................. Since there are various types, for example, for piecing, for

quilting, for hand-sewing and for machine-sewing, select

the type appropriate for the desired purpose and use.

c Sewing needles/pins.......................... Since there are various types, for example, for piecing

and for quilting, select the type appropriate for the

desired purpose.

c Quilting pencil (erasable pen, etc.) ... Use to copy patterns onto fabric and to draw quilting

lines.

quilting.

Place a thimble on the middle

finger of your right hand to push

the needle and on the middle or

index finger of your left hand to

stop the needle.
