Needlework used to be a mandatory subject in school, at least for the girls (the boys took woodworking or car mechanics instead). Nowadays needlework is a very popular way of crafting, such as sewing, crocheting, knitting, quilting, embroidering, plaiting or spinning. The most important tools for needlework are your own hands and off course needles.

Quilting is the joining of different types of fabric. With quilting, you process the fabric pieces into a blanket of three layers: a top, a filling and a backing. The pitting of the three layers of fabric is called quilting. You can make a quilt by hand but you can also make a quilt using a sewing machine.
