Modern Quilts Unlimited just published my article on how to add narrow accents to your projects. It’s a very easy method for sewing crisp, even accent strips from 1/8″ to 3/4″ wide.
Notice the Narrow Accents article featured on the cover, along with the beautiful quilt by Bev Getschel
There are so many uses for narrow accents! Here are a few of mine:
This is a corner of the piece I made to illustrate the MQU article
These blocks from my modern sampler all include narrow strips:
The samples I made for my improvised table runner class all include narrow strips, as well. Here is one of them:

Here’s a Mondrian-style block I made several years ago with narrow inserts
There are options too numerous to mention! Go get the magazine and make some accent strips, then please send me pictures of your creations.

I remember thinking her method was very workable when she blogged about it a while back, and now I don’t remember how she did it. Not going to buy the mag just to check though. I did send a “congrats on being published” message to her.
Cheers on being published. I love narrow accents–don’t use them as often as you do though. I’ll have to read and look for new ways.
Thanks! Please send pix, or blog about it and I’ll link to your post 😊
I just learned how to make narrow accents this year. What a nice dynamic touch this is! Good for you for being published!
Thanks, and thanks for reading!
Can’t wait to go get my copy of MQU and read your article and try your technique! Congrats on being published!!
Thanks, Sandi! And thanks for being my subject last week.
