I'm working on a quilt, matching up points, and decided to make a tute on my blog to show how I did it because new quilters may have trouble until they figure it out...

Love your tutes! My opinion, though, is that I don't sew over pins 'cause hitting one will surely damage the needle and possibly throw the machine out of kilter. For me, close is good!

Thank you!

thanks for putting this together - you make it look so easy!

thank you, I will definitely bookmark this for the next quilt,

Thanks so much for posting this tute....I enjoyed looking at your site!

Thanks you! Clear, concise directions and great photos.

Great tute! Thank you.

Thanks

:lol: Ditto! I may try this now! :thumbup:

Thank you. How smart are you! Think this will help me immensely
I've been practicing blocks trying to gain some skills and this will help. I have also found that using the baste stitch on my machine lets me try before I stitch and have to use the dreaded seam ripper. Thanks again for sharing.

thanks!

Thank you so much for this tute. This is one reason why I love this site. So many kind people willing to share their tips. How did I ever manage before finding this site ?

Oh, Falcon, I LOVE your avatar...can you provide a larger picture of it? Is it a wool applique? Gorgeous!

I have been quilting for quite some years now and still have problems with points. I think it is called patience! LOL

Wow your machine realy does not like pins! :wink:

Thank you for taking the time to explain this. As a new quilter I appreciate it very much.

Sorry I can't work out how to make a larger picture.
