Sew our NEW! Nancy Zieman’s Absolute Easiest Way to Sew Pillows: Palette Pillow with our easiest ever sewing techniques, and Classic Timesaving Tips by Nancy Zieman, and see how using the right tools makes the sewing process enjoyable, even for beginners!

Note From Team Nancy6What is a Palette Pillow? Team NZP named our NEW! Palette Pillow for the pillow’s front flat fabric surface, which is an ideal area — or palette — to showcase a variety of fabrics or techniques. Simply feature a beautiful fabric print – as we did with this pillow, or choose a fun novelty fabric, or a leftover quilt block. Try a new technique when making your next Palette Pillow: Prior to sewing your pillow together, decorate the square front fabric “palette” with ribbons, trims, buttons, applique, thread embellishment, machine embroidery, and/or nearly any embellishments you’d like – you’re the designer!

Timesaving Sewing Tips from Nancy Zieman      The “Wobble” Stitch! Use a “wobble” stitch when sewing knits. A wobble stitch is a very narrow zigzag stitch, that appears as straight stitching on the right side of the seam. Set machine for a zigzag stitch with a 2.5 length and .5 width.

    I understand that your organization is trying to compete with the Nancy’s Notions website that was sold to Tacony years ago. Unfortunately that desire to compete has reduced your blog to nothing less than a ad for the new site. What was best about Nancy’s blog was that it was designed for users not for the commercial sources she recommended. Please correct this very unfortunate commercial bent to your website.

    I need to spice up my deck chairs. This pattern is inspiring, as are your tips and techniques!

    I TOTATALLY agree with Pat Howell’s comment above. I have not enjoyed the new blog format or the Stitch It Sisters (nothing personal toward the Sisters). Nancy made very helpful, detailed videos with excellent instructions for using templates, etc. She did use items she sold, however these items were limited to just a few items (pattern books, ruler/templates).
    I know we can’t go backward to the “old days”, but I would like to see less advertising and more instructions/tutorials.
    Thanks,

    I have not checked this site for a while due to the constant advertising and the lack of receiving the stocking winner prize. I do not have time to enter this pillow contest. Teaching on-line now. If I had chance to use this fabric, I would use it to make items for donation.
