Smooth free motion quilting
#23
Thanks, I'm going to Home Depot today (for another project) and will look for the parts while I'm there.
We'll see who gets done first. I'll let you know if it works ok, you let me know how it comes out if your hubby finishes before me.

hi rose i have one it,s called a sew slip and it works wonderful, just put it on top of your sewing machine put the little hole where bobbin thread comes up . sticky side down on table and slippy side on top of your table works good because when you put your fabric glides smoother nellie

You do need all this extra space to acomodate your quilt around so you won't need to fight with all the weight of it....
You may also try the clippers so you actually roll the long fabric ...(I use slices of pvc tubes sometimes....)
Sit comfortably.....relax....and remember to acomodate your quilt a bit from time to time....
You will get there...its just a matter of time..... :lol:
Good luck
