About Quilting with Nana
A modern machine quilting site for busy makers: short projects, scrap-busting ideas and shortcuts that still give a clean finish.
Start here
Quilting with Nana is for people who love quilts but have about forty spare minutes on a weeknight.
Who we write for
Makers juggling jobs, kids and everything else. Confident beginners who own a sewing machine and want results fast. Experienced quilters drowning in scraps who want projects that use them up.
Our approach
- Every project is broken into short sessions
- Machine methods by default, with no hand finishing required
- Modern, graphic designs with plenty of negative space
- Scraps treated as a resource
Our rules
Done beats perfect. A finished quilt on the sofa is worth more than a flawless one in a drawer. Shortcuts are fine when they hold up in the wash.
