Fasturn by Crowning Touch Inc is a great tool if you need to turn lots of tubes of any width. I am not associated with them at all, just a happy user.

I’ve been looking for a solution to my problem. I have 4 horizontal QAYG rows with 6 quilted rectangular blocks in each row. I attached the 4 horizontal rows using zig zag stitching, then covered the seams on front and back with Marti Mitchel’s iron on batting tape to flatten and contain all stitching. I like how yours looks with the narrow blue sashing, however, no matter how carefully I pin the sashing, the two sides do not align, one over the other. However, I did not copy what you did. I tried to attach both the long top sashing and the back row sashing strips AT THE SAME TIME. I’ve tried this twice, but as I said above, the front and back ( or the top layer sash and the bottom layer sash) do not lie meshed together. After all this work I really don’t want to cut the rows apart to apply the front and back above and below each other, and then try to attach that to the adjacent row. Can you tell me of another method of connecting these rows?
@SharynsSewingSchool
@SharynsSewingSchool Ай бұрын
I am with you, trying to apply the tape to the top and bottom at the same time would drive me insane! If the back of your quilt is not important to you, then a whole cloth backing just attached as the tape is added might be the best option. How big are the blocks?

If you push the switch down into the area marked "2" you have set the machine to 2 thread overlocking. It is highly unlikely you will ever do two thread overlocking but it changes all the internal tensions on the machine!

Hi Sharon. Can I ask if the vertical joining strips @ 2.31 are sewn all the way down in one piece from top to bottom or do they only cover each set of designs being joined. I can see the horizontal joining strips are in one piece. I ask because I have seen other quilters leave a gap at both ends of the squares when sewing the vertical strips. Perhaps to eliminate bulk where they cross over?
@SharynsSewingSchool
@SharynsSewingSchool Ай бұрын
Hi there, I use full strips both vertically and horizontally. Although it is possible to break them up if I don't have long enough strips, I then need to be very careful lining them up so I avoid dog legs in the underneath pieces.

Hi there, yes the bobbin is a "front loader" not a "top loader" in the RE1306. In most other respects the two machines are very similar. I currently have access to a front loader, which I will be filming soon. In the meantime, the Janome 1008 has the same kind of bobbin set up as your machine. Hopefully someone has a video up about it that can help you out!

It isn't a problem to look home made if that is the look you are going for! Most people want their garments to be indistinguishable from purchased garments, or even better. If the stitch length is "wrong" compared to what people are accustomed to seeing in purchased garments it can be off putting in a way that we have trouble defining. 🙂

This was something I didn't know I needed to hear. I was sandwiching a hot pad and trying to zigzag stitch binding on. My machine kept missing stitches (a lot of them!) and I couldn't figure out what the problem was. I am a novice sewer so I assumed either my thread tension was wrong or my machine was just broken with that stitch type. You made complete sense though...so I am willing to try again. Thank you!

Skipping stitches is commonly a problem with the needle. I have a video "Top 5 reasons your sewing machine is not stitching." Make sure everything is working on straight stitch on two layers of regular firm fabric, then gradually introduce the confounding factors one at a time. Good luck!
