Traditional Quilt-as-you-Go

Also known as “lap quilting”, “QAYG is the technique of joining three layers – decorative top, batting, and backing – together in small, block-sized sections that are then connected to form the entire quilt” according to Georgia Bonesteel, author of Lap Quilting with Georgia Bonesteel.  The blocks are made in manageable sections that are easily portable.  Though the technique was particularly popular in the early 1980’s, it continues to delight quilters today.

Each of the quilt-as-you-go techniques has it’s own nuances, although both allow you to work on a block at a time.  

Happy quilting,
