The Ironing Board Trick
#23
Yes I quilt all I can that is exposed in the middle, such as a meander, then I work my way by rolling towards me. When that side totally complete, then I reroll the finished part and place the unfinished part in the keyhole and procceed as before.
I don't currently have a camera, but will try to borrow one to show my set up for machine quilting. I have a folding table the same height as my kitchen table. So the machine table with the well sets between them. No more weight issues. :lol:

OMG, I sure hope you are kidding! check the thrift stores in your area for a sewing table with the well in it. I got mine at one and it also folds for storage, although I rarely use that feature. LOL :lol:

Good ideas and GREAT description Lucia, got it clear in my head now. I will not be doing that when carpenter hubby is around, I'm angling for new quilting table and side table......what he doesn't know won't hurt me, right? :?:

Think of the sewing machine like your car, normally you would be facing it like you do to get in to drive. Now instead you are face the headlight end and moving your roll of quilt from right to left. Hope that helps.

These ideas have given me new hope that I will actually be able to quilt without having to purchase a long arm. I have always struggled with machine quilting my projects.
I am ready to try the table and ironing board trick this very moment.
VERY EXCITING!!!!!!
