How has the large and small ironing boards held up without holes to let out steam and heat?
@HappyCamperWV9 күн бұрын
Add another muslim cover that has elastic or cord at the edges to tighten. That way it’s easier to replace a stained cover without having to replace the material that is stapled down and you won’t keep putting staple holes into your wood board.

Thank you for this video!!!! As a suggestion if you want to use the wool mat maybe you could put a wood backing on it so you can used everywhere and not to worry for ruining the surface you use... Maybe... It's just an idea 😅

A less expensive option than a rotating mat is to just buy a small mat that you can turn on your larger mat. I have one that also doubles as my travel cutting mat.

my first thought was to put the board under the wool mat, best of all worlds, and faster

Steve at Sewing Gold now has engraved OEM plates that fit perfectly. Love mine--zero regrets. I sewed some polar fleece with it this week. Might try finish quilting next-simple squares or stitch in the ditch. I will use my vintage Singer 201 or Kenmore 158-17600 for piecing, the Juki isn't great with light fabrics.

Very helpful info.!! I used to use a lot of fusible products for basting and now steer away from it when I can because it causes the sewing needle to get gunky with adhesives. That causes all sorts of trouble until I replace the needle. I now rely more on good pressing and clips or pins to hold things in place. TFS

I completely understand your reasons for making your own portable pressing pad. I have a wool ironing pad and it has worked well for me. I've been researching pressing pads to see if it's something that would solve my problem. I put a waffle shelf liner (the one with holes) underneath it so that there's some air movement. I've not had any problem with moisture or mold which was a big concern of mine. By the way, I do like your pressing pad and the change to use muslin.

Hi, can you help me with a measurement please. Want to do the disappearing 4 patch to make a twin bed quilt. What size block would you recommend. I think the 5 inch would not work for me. Hope this ? Makes sense. Many thanks.

What about cutting your wool mat to fit the wood and then covering it with the muslin fabric?

Thank you for sharing your skill and knowledge. I have been watching several of these videos on the 9 patch, and I am so amazed at all the ways you can make it. I had never seen the one with the block in the middle being the same as the other 4 blocks, making 5 squares the same, and then the left over 4 being a great lighter color that went so well. I think it was beautiful. I am going to try my luck at it. Any ideas how many squares and what size square are needed to make a lap size quilt?

This was a great tutorial. I was just wondering if there was a reason you couldn't reuse the Insul-brite and batting (everything but the colored cloth cover) on the smaller pressing pad. Were you just wanting to start fresh?

Thank you for the informative and clearly explained tutorial. Now I understand it’s not an iron on transfer of the lines- but rather the shiny side acts like a temporary (not sticky) adhesive to hold the paper to the fabric so it does not move around while cutting. 🌺

I love the large blue hanging light that you have. Where did you buy it? I have the small light that attaches to the machine by magnet on my 1181 (I also have a smaller Ottlite), but I need another larger light like the one that you have. 😀 Thanks for the video.

Hello, I’m a beginner and just finished a disappearing 9 patch quilt. I did the simple pattern where you rotate the squares 180 degrees. I also tried to do diagonal cuts after. Urticaria f the Ay h horizontally and vertical. The first block turned out ok but when I tried to do the second block I kept getting lost as to where to show the triangles. I also learned that the more seams the smaller your block gets 🤪🤦🏻♀️😂. So you have to commit to using the same pattern or ones that will end up close to the same size. I wanted to do different pattern blocks but I would have had to figure out how to make them all work together. Don’t have the knowledge or want to spend the time to do so. But one thing that I enjoyed doing with this quilt top is being able to chain piece. Eventually the quilt top turned out ok. Now I have to put a border and finish it. Having a blast 💥.

I really like the star center I've made several very showy table-top, square runners with that one. It goes together quickly and it's a great gift, especially when you know a person's color schemes in their home. I would LUV to share some pictures with you. How do I do that?
@ArabianShalifa5 ай бұрын
I get value from your comparing the two types of ironing surfaces. When it start looking bad you could watch Professor Pincusion’s and just make a washable cover for it. So you would not need to take the staple out and keep it looking once.
