If partial seams have always felt like a bit of a mystery, this is the video that gently clears it all up. In this tutorial from Sewing Parts Online, you learn the Every Which Way block, a clever layout that seems to change before your eyes depending on how you turn it, and the little secret that makes it all work is the humble partial seam.
Here is why this one is worth watching:
- Partial seams made simple. The technique is shown so clearly that a step which sounds tricky suddenly feels completely doable, and it opens up a whole world of blocks.
- A layout that transforms. Turn the blocks this way and that and the whole quilt shifts character, so one simple unit gives you endless design play.
- Wonderful with strips. The block lends itself beautifully to long, pre-cut strips, which keeps the cutting quick and the sewing satisfying.
Fancy trying this one with strips? Have a peek at our strip rolls, ready cut at 2.5" so you can dive straight into those partial seams without the extra cutting. We would love to see how yours turns out!
Have you tried partial seams before, or has this given you the nudge to finally give them a go? I would love to hear how you get on.
