JEWEL HEARTS & INSTRUCTION LEAFLET
A Calm Alternative to Basting
Jewel Heart and Instructions Leaflet includes our Jewel Petal Tack It Easy 1" and instructions on how to make the Jewel Hearts.
Have you ever sat down to start English Paper Piecing and found yourself frustrated by the fiddly prep?
It’s meant to be enjoyable but you find yourself putting it off. I used to call it English Paper Procrastinating, and I knew there had to be a better way!
Sticky fingers, uneven sides and just plain awkward.
I created Tack It Easy to make glue basting just as fun (if not even more fun) than the piecing itself. A customer called it a ‘game changer for EPP’.
Comes with every gadget’s bestie, an acrylic template to make lining up and cutting your fabric a breeze. I recommend Sewline Glue pens and refills for use with Tack It Easy gadgets. The specially designed acid free textile glue is strong enough to hold but gentle enough to remove, so your Hexies stay ready for stitching.
Spend less time basting and more time with a needle in hand.
Because if a genie could grant one stitchy wish, it’s more time to stitch!
Whether you are piecing a quilt for family or simply enjoying the calm of quiet stitching, Tack It Easy makes the journey smoother. Hand-packed in Mirboo North, from our worktable to yours.

FAQs
Won’t it just rip?
Our very first prototype was made from cardboard and yes, it ripped. The finished Tack It Easy is made from a durable, specially crafted material that holds strong through repeated use. No tearing, no worries.
What papers do I use?
Any standard sized papers will work beautifully. You can even keep using your papers when the edges are a little worn from stitching because the gadget’s straight edge keeps everything neat.
How are these templates different from the ones I already have?
Tack It Easy templates have tiny corner holes to mark for accuracy when fussy cutting, plus printed guidelines to help you perfectly align prints. It is the little touch that makes your patchwork look extra polished.
Can I use different weights of fabric?
Yes, absolutely. We have tried it with everything from Liberty lawn patchwork to vintage linen and it works just as smoothly.
So how does it actually work?
It is simple. Glue, fold, spin, repeat. No more sticky fingers, no uneven edges, no mess. Many of us have stitched the old way with glue or thread basting, but after using Tack It Easy, there is no going back.
