Quilt Police? Sewing Slump? Troubleshooting

[@jaclynmoylan1905]

I will never understand why some people feel the need to leave negative comments. In the particular situation of the binding clips she could have simply asked why you were using them with the flat side up and I’m sure you would have given her your logic for doing so just like you did in this video. Personally I love to learn and see all the ways people do things so that I can try new things and if it works for me great and if not so be it. I just will never understand why people can be such negative Nancy’s. Imagine how boring the quilting world would be if we were robots and never tried new things lol

[@tammraneese720]

Me too! I love to find new ways to use tools! People are so creative. If it works for you, great! If it doesn’t, why share! That is how we learn and grow! Thank you for being so encouraging!

[@kathycarroll7885]

thank you for your quilt police answer! I totally agree. It still stings, but I just feel it, thank them for their input and remember everyone does things differently. I have also encountered cooking police, cleaning police, decorating police...😂...you name it. Some people need to be like that. JUST BE YOU! WE ARE ALL AMAZING! Enjoy quilting. Thanks for being you, Corey! I learn so much from you and am inspired to quilt every time I watch watch your videos!

[@sandyfisher6455]

Happy New Year! 🎉 I use my old thread to baste quilt layers together, that way I get to use my old thread but not depend on it to hold my quilt together. Looking forward to the quilt- along in January. 😊

[@quiltta]

Thank you. I have a ton of old thread ❤

[@sandidavis45]

I taught kids to read for over thirty years. I think when told there is only one way to do something, I think of all those kiddos that all learned differently! What I learned early on with quilting is the way that works for me is right way for me. For you? Maybe, maybe not. The quilting community in general is very kind and encompassing. I have met many new friends both in person and over the internet. Having more than one way to do something just means one has included someone who learns differently than you. I am thoroughly enjoying my retirement hobby. Thanks for making it fun.

[@karenmorton3849]

Thank you for another fun Saturday morning! You are so positive and inspiring! I got a kick out of your "Quilt Police" answer. I think we've all been there. Just best to be yourself and follow your own creative instincts. See you next Saturday!

[@lisamcq]

Laughing at the binding clips story. I use the flat side up too for the same reason! Thanks for taking the time to do videos when the holidays and your move are keeping you so busy!

[@CorianderQuilts]

It's been so fun to read through the comments and see how many use the flat side up!

[@carmenbailey1560]

Happy to see you smiling on this Saturday morning, you make me smile automatically. Sharing your thoughts, answers and upcoming plans. 👍❤️😊

[@sewquilty]

One of the Many reasons I enjoy watching you is your uplifting positive attitude & messaging! Loved the segment on the "Quilt Police" & BTW your Binding video changed my life & I have been quilting (the old fashioned way) for 50+ yeats!! Good Luck in your move. HAPPY NEW YEAR

[@helenhershtjader5759]

Corey , thank you for a fabulous year of videos! Looking forward to 2025! Thoroughly appreciated your discussion of quilting police. As a lefty, self taught quilter who struggles with reversing things, my ways are often ‘backwards’. I truly appreciate learning new techniques even if it’s not for me. So please keep up your positive message of doing what works for you. Gratitude!

[@barbaraklein4488]

As another lefty I appreciate your comments. Very often I end up sewing and quilting differently from others. Our church quilting ladies are very accommodating and found the perfect place for me to "quilt in the other direction.

[@terryginter152]

Thank you so much Corey. My Saturday isn't complete without you!

I love watching the clips, but for me it’s, Sunday morning/afternoon as I’m in Australia.

[@janelicata5328]

I love these weekly check-ins with you, Corey. They leave me feeling happy and uplifted. Thanks for sharing your sunny disposition and your quilting expertise with us! Good luck with your move!

[@Derf56]

Love the Saturday videos! I never knew that folding quilts on the bias was a thing - I’ll keep that in mind next time I fold a quilt. Also, polyester thread started to be used in 1955, so heirloom quilts are definitely made with cotton thread. Thanks for all that you do for this group!

Oh my who knew ppl are so sensitive about wonder clips lol. I don’t pay attention to what way mine face when I use them. You do you we love you !!!

[@rebeccamulkern1051]

@@fabricandflowers83 me too, I just clip them when I’m doing my binding, I’ll just have to notice next time what side up they land , out of curiosity!

I know!...a little old wonder clip. =)

[@janwilliams4874]

Beautiful video, Corey! You are so gracious and humble. I love your answer to the last question. I love how your reframe your reply to those who think they "know best". While I have not had this happen to me, I have certainly witnessed these nasty folks (that you so diplomatically refer to as "quilt cops") comment on others' work, etc. It really enrages me because these mean spirited comments can have the effect of breaking the recipient's creative spirit. I have to sit back and think that the nasty folks are truly miserable folks lacking in kindness. Sad, really sad! Love that you stay "YOUR" course. Happy New Year!

[@spmiller1427]

Thanks for doing the video especially since you’re moving. Appreciate everything you give to the quilt community

You're welcome! 😊

[@deborahpowell4373]

When I sewed clothes for my daughter or myself, I would work for a couple of hours. But when I started making stupid mistakes, it was time to quit and walk away from the machine. ( sometimes they were really funny mistakes, like the time a shoulder dart got sewn to the back seam instead and looked as if it was for a wing. I laughed so hard, I cried. Knew I was too tired and stopped. ). So sometimes you just need to go do something else, or go to bed, and come back the next day. I have just recently found your Saturday shows and I’m enjoying them. Really like your A Bloom fabric. Thanks Deborah Powell

[@Lonequilter22]

Loved your answer for the quilting slump. My slump is right after Christmas because I've met all the gifts needed and all the bustle takes its toll. Yes now I can take a step back and enjoy it and not feel guilty.

[@PattiMac00]

I feel the same way!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Sometimes you just need a little pause. =)

[@paml2642]

Wonderful video to wrap up the year🎉 I always pick up on something during your Q&A sessions. We moved three years ago and I swore I would not buy any more fabric until I used what I had. HA! That lasted about two weeks. Good luck with your move and blessings in your new home💕

[@lstevens2642]

Just found your videos. I have subscribed and can’t wait to see what is coming up. Thank you for your tips and tricks. I am very new to quilting and am so inspired by you and in reading the comments from your followers. You are very appreciated by so many.

[@christifranks1116]

The quilt police keep me from asking for advice sometimes, which is sad because I know that for the most part, quilters can be very helpful! Some voices are just louder than others, though. Grace, Grace, God’s grace… right?! ❤ Happy new year, Corey!

[@nancydunn1564]

For the person worried about bleeding fabrics…there is a product called Color Grabber. These look like dryer sheets and you put a couple of them in the washing machine and they collect any color in the water that comes from the fabric. Give them a try. I find them at Walmart and they come in a box kind of like dryer sheets.

[@BethRoyer]

Thanks Cory for your answer about Wonder Clips. I too use then with flat side up when I'm hand sewing on my binding, but turn them around if I use them while using my machine. Thanks.

[@teresastradinger9986]

Corey, your answer about how you sort scraps by color reminded me of something I love. I have a stack of bundles from different Moda designers that go together so beautifully. I plan to use your Cali & Co fabrics with Strawberry Lemonade and Laguna Sunrise from Cherie and Chelsea. Right now, I'm still enjoying just seeing the beautiful pile of fabrics, but I will cut into them for your quilt along.

[@fransak2723]

Great video Corey. When using older threads I would use the snap test. Just try to break it and see how easily it breaks. If you get a thread cut on your fingers you’ll know it’s good and strong😢

[@sandikae7682]

I’ve been sitting here reading the comments by my fellow quilters, and it seems a lot of us have encountered the quilt police. When I first started quilting I took quite a few in person classes at my local shop or at quilt shows. I was always the slowest sewer and the last one done, ruining a couple projects by trying to rush. I remember one class at a show. Our teacher/designer was a nice person, but was not happy with the way I chose to proceed with the project. I told her that I work best going slow and one step at a time, and that her pattern was very well documented and I could complete the quilt at home. I liked my completed quilt so much, I made another quilt, and I sent her pictures of both. She loved that I had sent pictures and she loved the quilts. As Corey said, DO YOU❣

[@teresalahti6625]

Please tell me why you would need to wash QUARTERS im confused. I just found you and think you’re very informative.

[@CorianderQuilts]

When I was teaching classes, everyone worked at much different paces. Often, those that were slower paced apologized to me for their pace. I always told them that everyone works at different speeds and to work at whatever pace they wanted to. I started mentioning that right away at the beginning of class because I never wanted anyone to feel like they weren't keeping up or they needed to speed through a step. We all work differently! Some were faster, some were slower, and there were always those that chatted the day away and didn't make as much progress because they were having fun talking. =)

[@CorianderQuilts]

You don't need to prewash fabrics but some quilters like to. It shrinks the fabrics so you don't have shrinkage while piecing your blocks. It's also recommended to prewash fabrics that are notorious for bleeding (red for instance).

[@C123abc]

Yes! I use the Wonder Clips the same way! I find that the rounded side glides better for me. I'm aware that I'm doing it "wrong" but don't care as it works for me! Love your videos because I love to learn (at 74) and love to try new things. Have fun with your move and Happy New Year!

[@CorianderQuilts]

It's been so interesting all of us that like to use the flat side up!

[@KathyRackow]

I look forward Every Saturday to Your Video. It is such a pleasant way to start my day. When I am in a Sewing Slump I cross-stitch or crochet. I get inspiration to quilt again by choosing smaller projects like hot pads, table runners or placemats. Hope you had a Good Christmas and that your move is going smoothly. Wishing You A Happy New Year In Your New Home!

[@pauladimattei6434]

Something that gets me out of a funk is to switch to another method of creating. I always feel the need to create, but sometimes quilting isn’t doing it for me. I love your idea of just stepping back too. I am going to try that too. Thanks for all you do.

[@CorianderQuilts]

[@brendadunham2442]

So funny the way you use the wonder clips that way. I also use my wonder clips with the flat sides up. I hand bind and it just seems to hold the binding together better. I could never criticize the way someone does something because my brain just does not work the same as others. I have a hard time following a pattern and things tend to turn out a bit differently. I just think it becomes my design. Lol. HAPPY NEW YOU FELLOW QUILTERS!

[@CorianderQuilts]

[@katherinem7835]

I do quilt my own quilts. I have a machine with a longer throat. I have quilted a king size quilt on my own machine. I'm getting ready to do another for my son. I only feel proficient using meander or loops quilting. The most important thing to me is to get the quilt sandwich tightly stretched so it won't bunch up under the needle. I have a table from joanns that I stretch my quilts on. I use binder clips from the office supply store to hold the sandwich in place until I can safety pin it. Then I move the quilt all around until I get it pinned all over. This method works well for me.

Loved watching your last video of 2024, the Q&A was informative and fun. I could nor help but notice the basket on the shelf near the milk pitcher. I recognize the basket. For years I was a collector of the Longaberger baskets. It was more like an obsession. I have over 100 baskets plus the pottery of both Longaberger and Henn. I made several tours to the factories and shops in Ohio. I miss the smell of those new baskets, but now look forward to the feel of a newly made quilt before I give it away. Wishing you an easy, uneventful move into your new home. Looking forward to more of your videos in 2025. I just received my fat quarter of Coriander Colors in the mail from FQS, can't wait to start my next quilt, love color palate!

I have quite a few antique quilts and it's not the thread that breaks down, it's the fabric. I've never seen one with thread that has broken down. Sometimes seams will come apart, but that's generally from a cut or tear in the fabric.

"Coffee with Corey". My Favorite. If I am in a slump, I do piecing, collage quilting ( animals and flowers ), and read the Bible. I also plant in the spring. In the dead of winter I used to play World of Warcraft , but I found that it does not go with what the Bible teaches me. I also exercise to get my blood going and bones to stop hurting, along with taking aspirin. I amuse myself with budgets, and lists for groceries, what I have in my pantry, and how to save money. I make my own laundry soap, and my own fabric softener. My own orange cleaning solutions. Sometimes , I just watch Downton Abbey. Love you always Corey. God Bless You and Your Family.

[@lindabaldwin6293]

I use my wonder clips as cat toys…. 😮, Actually when my cat wants some attention when I’m sewing, and he gets right close to my machine, I toss a wonder clip out to the hallway on the wood floor, so it clicks and slides, and whoosh, cat is gone, now bating the clip all around, and I’m happily sewing again! 😂

I inherited a lot of thread from my aunt and mother. Much of it was very old (some still on wooden spools!) My aunt kept her thread in a drawer, and it seems to be in good shape. My mother kept hers in an open box on a table in her sewing space. Her thread wasn't so nice as it had collected a lot of dust and dirt. It's is my opinion that the life of thread has a direct correlation with how it has been stored. I love your fabric and videos. I'm signed up for the mystery quilt coming this summer. Hurry up summer. Happy New Year! Di.

[@jayneterry8701]

Tyfs about the thread.

[@penelopecarpenter5166]

The question about the lifetime of thread was interesting,I guess it also depends on the environment,where we live,weathers,storage,the very old threads I would imagine were cotton,silk and wool.Thankyou again for a great video.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I would think so!

[@randie1735]

Good Saturday to you Corey and family 😊. I was doing just as you said and listening while doing other things until you came to the subject of quilt police. I had a terrible experience with that for my very first quilt class. Let me be clear… first class, I didn’t even have a rotary cutter. It was a log cabin quilt in a day class. The instructor said she’d help me select fabrics and then poo pooed every selection I made. Apparently she’d had quilts judged in Paducah and felt pretty good about herself As it turned out I was the only one in the class out of 10 that had never quilted before. No thanks to her, I love my quilt because I love my colors and fabric selections. Good news, that was about 9 years ago and she didn’t stop me. And… I also use wonder clips that exact way! I do like how flat they stay on top, but they also ride smoother on the bed of my machine ❤

[@brendajackson294]

Awesome video this morning. Thanks for the quilt police answer. It is so hard to be criticized on something you have done your best and are proud of. People just need to be more kind to others. Not everyone is at the same skill level. I like that you said we are all here to have fun and be creative. Hope you get moved and settle in a bit. Happy New Year.

[@person2463]

Thread that is stitched in is different from using a thread that is old, due to the tension of a sewing machine. I do love to starch, but then for me is part of the process, and I think it helps reduce shrinkage when washing, because a lot of the shrinkage occurs pre-sewing, and most of the shrinkage occurs one way on the fabric. Mostly on the width of fabric, than the lengthwise grain. Thankyou for another wonderful year! And hope the move is as pain free as possible. Hugs, Chel 🌸

[@loridoyle3591]

Have a happy and blessed New Year!! ❤🎉

[@jennaforesti]

Thread will break down in ways similar to fabric with the same fiber content. Just as an example, silk will break down when exposed to high heat - both fabric and thread. Synthetic thread (polyester, especially) stored in a warm, sunny window will break down as the fabrics will.

I machine quilt all of my own quilts. My tip is to practice doodling 3 to 5 free motion designs such as loops, meander and swirls. Keep doodling. You will develop muscle memory and will soon be proficient in these 3-5 designs. The size of your stitches will become more consistent with practice. A supreme slider and quilting gloves are very helpful. Also, you may have to adjust the tension. Don’t be afraid to do this.

[@rebeccamulkern1051]

@@Linda-fs3ex yes, I had to adjust my tension from the factory setting of 2 to almost 6 when I was FMquilting, then my loops didn’t have the eyelash effect on the back, i actually forgot to adjust the tension back for straight stitch and it was absolutely fine, so now , for my machine, the tension is the same high number and works great! Each machine is different

[@lindakendall9943]

Loved this Q&A video! The quilt police answer is spot on! I think most of them do not recognize that is how they are coming across! Nor do they realize that not every recipient of their "advice" or critique are experienced or confident enough to not be negatively affected by it. That is what happened to me years ago and I did quit for a while. Thank you for your gracious example and encouragement for those experiencing QP encounters!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I don't know if you've read down through any of the comments but some of the viewers mention a "thread pulling" test.

[@mimielliott8052]

That is so funny about your usage of wonder clips. I found they are easier to remove as I’m sewing along at a good clip when they’re used flat side up.. it’s just how my plate is on my machine..
