HQ Sweet Sixteen Sunday Part 1 Quilt as you go with the Sweet Sixteen and the Accuquilt Go!

This is Part 1 of a 3 part project. By using the Accuquilt along with the Sweet Sixteen we will make a cute project that is the perfect last minute gift idea. I'd love you to sew along with me! Show us what you've made over on the Facebook page - Sew Little Fabric.

I have a GO and a Babylock Tiara, which, I am told, is the same machine as the Sweet Sixteen. So your videos are helpful to me. Thank you. I have subscribed and will watch them all!

Ooooh, I have one of these and I love it!

Do you have the Go or the Sweet Sixteen? If you have the Sweet Sixteen, do you have trouble moving the quilt around? I find that I am always pushing, pulling, and readjusting. I do have the overlay so I don't know why it is so hard for me. I am going to try starching the back of the quilt heavily so it will slide more easily.

I have a Husqvarna Viking Platinum 16 which is pretty much the same. I have a pulley type system that holds the edges of the quilt up off the table to help with the drag.

What is it called? I tried putting hooks in the ceiling and hung bungie cords with clamps. That held it up. Then I had to move the machine. Maybe I will ask my husband to put the hooks in again.

I noticed that you have the selvage in the wrong spot from what the Accuquilt people keep saying in each and every video. I don't think it would matter in strips though because if I had to cut with a rotary cutter, I would do it exactly the same as you. What do you think as a real user? Do you think it matters when it comes to strips? Thank you very much. I want to learn as much as I can as I just bought an Accuquilt, and I have not used my Sweet 16 yet... Thank you for showing how to use these.

Yes, I noticed that as well. I love my GO, but I am always confused as to which way to put the fabric.

What kind of machine is this

[@petmomful2260]

It is the Sweet Sixteen mid arm by Handi Quilter.
