I shall now use my walking foot for joining strips, thank you for this tip! And it’s wonderful to see your delightful videos back on a regular basis, I missed them.

It hadn't occurred to me to use my walking foot for sewing long strips... I'll definitely try that! Another thing you may be able to do is make sure your thread tension is correctly set. If either top or bottom thread tension is too tight it can cause uneven feed.

Great. Video. I'm a self taught sewer. And I always do it this way. (Learned it the hard way lol). Have a peaceful day.😊

After about 50 years of the habit of holding long pieces, I always imagined that by bending each held end upwards, it caused the bottom piece to ever so lightly have more tension then the top piece. Also, I always felt that with long pieces that the strip wants to curl and the back end (the just stitched area) tends to curl outwards away from the machine causing the top piece to stop being lined up with the bottom and causing the top to be wider. I learned to baste long pieces when I was young which help solve both problems but of course as soon as I was out of my mothers home I went to pins, I hate basting. The lesson you are teaching is so important and perhaps one of the most important whether you are sewing quilts or a long seam on the side of a skirt. I have often seen that uninlining problem on factory made dresses that are bargins apparently. These days with my arthritic hands, I use a walking foot with wonderful success and no worries. Extra steps make the difference on the final work and people learning can be extra proud of their results by making the finished product look professional. Plus it makes it easier to view your art then your mistakes.

Thank you for your video. . . I always have issues with the two fabrics not feeding evenly. . . so I have never wanted to try quilting anything large or piece work.

I have a question....should you sew 1 strip in one direction and then the one the other way. Alternate the strips....
@GourmetQuilter
@GourmetQuilter 5 жыл бұрын
Hi, if the fabric is feeding evenly then you shouldn't need to turn the other way as we are just stitching straight grain fabric. I turn the other way for convenience sometimes.

Wow, love this tip. May I ask does the tension need adjusted at all when using a walking foot on strips?

Is the duel feed the same or works the same as a walking foot. Thank you.

I didn’t know Bernina made a duel feed machine. I don’t like the walking foot while piecing because it hinders my 1/4 inch seam allowance. What is the model # on your machine please?! That duel feed system is awesome. Thanks for the tutorial.

Hi, it is a relatively new feature on the Bernina. The model I am using is 570QE which has the larger bobbin, dual feed and cuts the thread for you.

@Malanie Cape Town, Yes! Definitely upgrade to the best Bernina Model that you can afford and more importantly one whose features you will use over the years to come. I have had my Bernina 880 Tula Pink edition for about 6 months now and I love it. It sews like a dream and it sews fast. I have wanted a Bernina since I first used one 12 years ago.
