Fun accessory for my sewing machine

March 30, 2015 4 Comments

Do you have this accessory for your sewing machine? Do you use it? It allows you to stitch at the desired distance from a previous stitching. It's great for echo quilting. I have a Pfaff machine and this is called edge/quilting guide. It's very easy to attach it to the machine. And stitching lines spaced at 1'' (or even more) saves you time! And if you want to add some free motion … [Read more...]

Quick and Easy Multicolor Free Motion Quilting

Free motion quilting with colored thread

November 4, 2014 3 Comments

Tonight I hope I will have time to edit the photos of one of my latest quilts. It is one of my favorite quilts! Here is the thread I used to quilt the background. Usually I quilt with just one color. After I quilted this one, the idea of using many colors is more and more appealing to me. This is the thread I received for the Aurifil Challenge; you wouldn't say, but you can sew a lot with … [Read more...]

Free Motion Quilting

October 27, 2014 14 Comments

I advice my customers who work on patterns that require marking the quilt top to start the quilt when they have time to finish it quickly. The less time the colored marking stays on fabric the better! And I started this quilt three months ago!  Now it is finally quilted and is waiting to be washed. I hope there will be no surprise (because I used these markers that I already tested)! I … [Read more...]

best needles for quilting

What are the best needles for quilting? Topstitch needles Years ago I started  using topstitch needles for free motion quilting and it made a huge difference in my quilting. One of the major frustration when free motion quilting is thread breaking. You will LOVE or HATE free motion quilting - it depends on  how often your thread breaks. I hated it many times, but as long as we stitch - we try … [Read more...]

Quilting feathers on borders

August 28, 2014 11 Comments

I hate adding borders to quilts.  Sometimes I have to do it- the design was square and I needed a longer quilt. Happy that I had to add only two!! Then I quilted them and now I see the borders with other eyes. I think it's the first time I quilt feathers on borders. I loved it! I will do it again, hopefully soon! Geta … [Read more...]

How to quilt spaced pebbles

August 16, 2014 17 Comments

quilt spaced pebbles

Learn to quilt spaced pebbles It's easy- but time consuming as all the pebbles! And it takes a lot of thread! More than you think! Start stitching the pebble as usual. Then outline the first stitching with a new stitching, close to the previous one, but not on top of it. Repeat 3-4 times. Then start a new pebble, leaving enough space between them so they don't overlap. It's fun and … [Read more...]
