This is the one for my machine:

I also use the Fine Line Clarity ruler foot, especially when I'm doing a combination of ruler...

Caley, what kind of foot are you using for FMQ? Is it the kind with a spring on the side and an arm that goes over the needle bar? If so, you might want to try some sort of floating foot. The...

Been there, done that as well!

​​​​I love a secondary pattern, so I would be inclined to make the rest of the blocks according to your original plan, and just leave this one as-is for the quilt...

Tallchick's link didn't work for me; maybe this will:

Yes, you can just keep adding strips until you have the size you want. I think it will look fine, since the pattern repeats - you just have to continue the pattern.

That's going to be beautiful...

I love my Martelli mat - yellow with navy lines on one side, lavender with white lines on the other. I mostly use the yellow side. It's held up well over the years. Like you I use the lines for...

That is a great story. Projects like this are wonderful for helping inmates feel empathy for others at a time when they're really disconnected from society. I wish there had been pictures - it sounds...

I would suggest the Pfaff Passport. It has built-in dual feed (IDT) since smooth feeding is your top priority. It's lightweight, has serpentine stitch, and all the other nice features you're looking...

Some people have had good luck opening up the Juki walking foot and oiling all the friction points. Apparently a lot of problems are fixed with proper lubrication.



Just remember, it's a...

Thanks everyone! Macybaby, if you had/have one with the same decals that confirms it for me. My only hesitation was because of the VS/front tension/bed mounted stitch length combination, but I...

I'm seriously tempted to get this treadle: https://www.kijiji.ca/v-other-furniture/saskatoon/antique-sewing-machine/1582578077

My Mom went and looked it over yesterday, and it appears to be...

1/4" is fine, especially since you're hand quilting. Looking at pictures from the book it seems like the author uses very dense quilting, so if you have the patience, go for it!

You say you're a...

Ooh, these sound great! Thank you all!

IceBlossom, I've been thinking about trying to can some like this - I've heard childhood stories of these from a few people, but never had them myself.
...

Don't tear it off, Pam! Since it's batik, just undo the backwards seam and an inch or two where it is joined to the quilt in either side of the seam. Flip the seam and reset the right way, then...

I ended up with 50+ lbs of crabapples. They're delicious, but I need some more recipes! I've made applesauce, dried apple chips, crabapple jelly, and sliced and froze for pie. Does anyone have good...

The phrases "pre-cut strips" and "Colorado snow storm" caught my eye here, because I just had the same experience.

​​​​​​Jelly roll strips shed a lot. The long pinked edges are the cause - all...

I think you will have to trim the middle rectangles down to 2.5" x 4.5", so that the finished geese are 2x4. If you leave the rectangle 5" long, you won't get the overlap needed to avoid losing...

Ooh, ooh - I think I know! (Warning: chemistry nerd alert!)

The alcohol will reduce the surface tension of the water, and reduce its polarity. Both of these things will allow it to soak into the...

My Mom has the 3160, and hasn't had a problem with the presser foot height. She's put a lot of miles on that machine, and still loves it. It's light, quiet, and a real workhorse. She's not the...

To fix this, press Ctrl+Shift, and check if it's back to normal. If not do it again - I don't know why, but sometimes it takes a few times to switch back to English.

What is the quilt going to be used for? If it's going to be a wall hanging, skipping the batting might affect how it hangs (making it saggy).

As others have said, the biggest culprit is probably not basting the sides. If you float the top you should still baste the sides as you go - just run a quick line up each side every time you...

It depends what kind of labelling you want - temporary or permanent.

​​​​​I got some embroidered labels made that I put on quilts. The labels are small; they say "Made by Jennifer" which is both...

Now I'm curious - what are you envisioning? I think of most quilts as being geometric, involving a lot of straight lines. Are there traditionally-pieced quilts that give the look you have in mind? ...

There are lots of large EPP quilts that use a variety of shapes. Check out Willyne Hammerstein's Millefiori Quilts books as a starting point. Here is a link to some templates for her quilts:...
