my grandma used to call those "toe catchers", and laughed at them. i suspect it was a kind of gentle snobbery to think that not everyone was capable of teeny tiny stitches like hers...

DUMB question, but when you say that "longer 1/4" stitch", do you mean the length of the hand quilting stitch??

I'm so excited to get started. :)
Not sure if that is what it really is called, but I'Ve seen it quite a lot lately, it is a much longer hand quilting stitch, sort of folk artsy.
