Gotta love that Glide foot! - Long arm quilting accessory?
[ATTACH=CONFIG]611374[/ATTACH]
Recently I learned about a "Glide" foot for longarm quilting - meant to slide seamlessly over intersections of blocks, I think the idea is genius!
But at $99 USD plus shipping etc, exchange, and possible duty/brokerage at the border, I thought the price was a bit steep.....
Enter my DH to the rescue - we discussed what was needed/wanted, figured out how to find the "cup" shape (top of a health and beauty product that was clear and roughly the correct size once trimmed down in height) and DH ingenuity, and...….
Voila! My very own glide foot made using a regular foot for my machine that I never used (I usually run with the ruler foot on).
Having quilted a table runner and a small lap quilt with it, I can say it performs wonderfully and I love it!
I'm not sure if sit down quilters would find this a useful foot or not, but I do think it would be useful for sure.... and the same principle could be used to make one.
