Thanks for this. Why did you by-pass the 1/4 inch seam allowance when first cutting cutting out your shapes?
@QuiltingJetgirl9 ай бұрын
Great question. Think about making quarter circle blocks. When you piece them, you have to make unfinished blocks, so if you made 4 quarter circle blocks to make a full circle, each quarter circle would be 1/2" larger than the finished size, i.e. 6 1/2" unfinished and 6" finished to make a 12 1/2" unfinished or 12" finished full circle. Because we are making the full circle at once, then that extra 1/4" that is needed to sew quarter circles into a full block is not needed. I hope that helps clarify!

Thanks. Picked up some new ideas for burying threads. With the 12wt you used a 50wt bobbin thread, what did you use for the other two wts in the bobbin?
@QuiltingJetgirl Жыл бұрын
I'm glad I had a few new ideas for you to consider. For the other thread weights, I match the thread in the bobbin. So for 50wt, I wind my bobbins from the 50wt spool; for 40wt, I wind my bobbins from the 40wt spool; for 28wt, I wind my bobbins from the 28wt spool.

@SewGurl58 Жыл бұрын
I would use both colors. For example, if the white is on the bottom, the bobbin is white and the top thread is navy to match the navy. I always two color thread on high contrast combos
@QuiltingJetgirl Жыл бұрын
At the end of the video, I mention that I tried that as well. For this particular quilt and my sewing machine settings, the resulting seam looked more like the all white thread seam, so for me, it wasn't a good choice here. But that's why I absolutely encourage everyone to try things out and test out their machine settings and thread options. Knowing what works best with your setup is so empowering!

Thanks. This was easy to follow. Scant 1/4 inch does not work for me so I make the squares another 1/4 inch bigger and trim down when I square up the completed block.
@chimknee2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for this. I bought a template for this block and had come issues with extra fabric at the end. I'll go back and try your demo on scrap remnants to see if it was bias/straight of grain that is giving me a problem. I use quilting cotton. Also, what size needle and thread did you use? Would that make a difference?
@QuiltingJetgirl2 жыл бұрын
Good question. I sew with 50wt Aurifil, which is a 2 ply 50wt thread. I also like to use 80/12 Schmetz needles for piecing. I don't particularly think that the needle/thread combination is why you might have extra fabric at the end. It's more likely that the raw edges of the fabrics were not fully aligned, which can lead to having extra fabric at the end. Definitely sew up some scraps, try things out, and look at how the raw edges are aligned prior to pressing the seam.

Hi Yvonne. I have the same machine and hate the walking foot that came with it. I have talked with the company and they sent me another one that is the exact same, grrr. What are you using? Has a nice open toe! Is it Janome?
@QuiltingJetgirl3 жыл бұрын
Hello Gayle. Yes, I purchased a Janome walking foot. It is the Janome Convertible Even Feed Foot Set for high shank model. It's not a perfect replacement; the top feed dogs on the Janome foot do not perfectly align with the feed dogs on my Juki (although I've had no issues as a result of the offset). Also, the needle is not centered in the center of the foot; it is closer to the right. I found mine on Amazon (this is a non-affiliate link): www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DQBUZUU
