Did you know you should replace your needle either

Did you know you should replace your needle either after each long project or 30 hours of sewing? Not sewing with the correct size or type of needle can cause thread breakage, tension issues, puckered seams, needle breakage or damage to your machine. Sometimes you may need several different types of needles within the same project e.g. bag making! Needles are one of the most inexpensive pieces of equipment yet are often the most neglected!! Improve your sewing experience by using the right size and type of needle for your project. A free tutorial on the different types of needles is available on our website and we have a wide range in stock in our online shop too (link in bio). #needles #sewingmachineneedles #sewingequipment #machinesewing #justjudedesigns

Throwback Thursday: 4 years ago this weekend we ha

Throwback Thursday: 4 years ago this weekend we had another Brit Bee Retreat, in Bedfordshire. Brit bee was formed as a group of 12 quilters from across UK in 2011 via Flickr and still exists today (swipe to see our first meet-up in 2012). We have lost a few members and gained some new ones along the way, but we will always have an everlasting bond. Can't wait until we can all meet up again!! #britbee #britbeeforever #sewingtribe #sewingtogether #quiltingretreat #memories #throwbackthursday

Last chance to get booked in and prepped for our Stained Glass Windows twin needle workshop on Friday! You will learn how to decorate your projects with twin needled fusible bias tape to create striking designs. You will make a mosaic stained glass panel which you can then turn into a beautiful cushion (free pattern provided). Join in on zoom with other sewists from around the world for lots of creative fun!

One year ago to the date, our 2nd quilting retreat at the fabulous Murlough House, Dundrum, co.Down. Ah the halcyon days when we could stand and sew shoulder to shoulder!! #goodtimes #quiltingretreat #sewingtogether #murloughhouse

Had a great day yesterday with the #hexagonquilters, teaching them Stained Glass Windows with a twin needle and fusible bias tape! Their finished Mackintosh Flower cushions are stunning!

I finished a little sample for my Stained Glass Windows (Twin needling) live zoom workshop with @craftymonkies next Friday. This Japanese style wristlet pouch showcases how versatile this technique can be in giving your projects a striking decorative effect. Swipe left to see more examples and details of the workshop. Black fusible bias tape and twin needles can be purchased via our website (link in bio). #stainedglasswindows #stainedglasspatchwork #fusiblebiastape #twinneedle #zippypouch #stainedglasswindowspouch #wristletpouch #japanesepouch

Hi everyone, I've had an influx of new followers

Hi everyone, I've had an influx of new followers the past few months so thought I give a proper intro! I'm Judith, a patchwork and quilting designer/tutor in Belfast, n.Ireland. I've been teaching for over 13 years and live and work 5 minutes from where the Titanic was built! I have 3 grown up daughters, I love watching movies (& going to the cinema, when allowed) and eating ice-cream!! My sewing philosophy is that perfection doesn't exist this side of eternity. I love working with scraps and repurposing textiles like denim, tweed and wool. Top of my bucket list is to spend a sleepy month trailing round the lesser known streets of Florence (eating lots of ice-cream of course!)! The past (covid) year has had a big impact on Just Jude Designs, with no in-person classes since March'20. But we have adapted and built up an online presence in that time, selling fabric, haberdashery, patterns, YouTube tutorials and classes. I also teach live zoom workshops and tutor for @craftymonkies . Thank you for choosing to follow our humble achievements here. We hope to inspire and encourage you to keep creating! #bio #justjudedesigns #whoweare

Last night I attended @sotakhandmade Malmo Pouch workshop, hosted by @craftymonkies . This was a bit of social playtime for me (there's not been much of that this past year!). It was a lot of fun sewing along with folks from all over the world, enjoying Svetlanas expert tuition and being a student rather than the tutor!! The workshop will soon be available on Crafty Monkies YouTube channel which you can purchase via their website. Svetlanas pattern (2 sizes) is also available via her website. Blogged. #malmopouchworkshop #malmopouch #sewingworkshop #zippypouch #foldoverpouch #bagmaking
