Excellent information? I love how you get right to the point and start teaching. I always learn something I didn't know and I was shocked to see that you could interchange feet with the walking foot. Yay to that. I will have to look in my foot collection to see if I have something similar. Thanks Laura! You're the best.

I was going throw a sewing drawer looking for my stitch in the ditch foot just yesterday and came across the box my walking foot came in and wondered why I had kept the box. I’m now thinking perhaps there is another foot in it. I’m excited to go and have a look now, and then having a trial run. Thank you so much from a beginner quilter. ❤

Laura, I have always sent my quilt tops to get quilted, but it is getting rather expensive and I would like to be able to quilt smaller items myself. I noticed you uses pins for this baby quilt but what sizes and brand of safety pins do you recommend when having to pin baste for larger items? I do have some arthritis in my hands and wondered if you ever used a pin fastener or is it not a real useful tool? Thank you for all of your wonderful tutorials. You have a great way of communicating process. Thanks "sew" very much:) Pam

Hello Laura, Thank you very much for your return message. I am asking what is the best brand of safety pins to purchase, for pin basting a quilt. I have seen a safety pin fastener that is supposed to make it easier on your hands to close the safety pins but not sure if it is one of the "can't live without items" I have not purchased these items but I am in the process of gathering things that will be need, to start quilting smaller quilts. Thank you for the tutorials you share with us. KZbin is wonderful! Pamela Granger
@SewVeryEasy6 жыл бұрын
I do use a good safety pin like this amzn.to/2kIhIsF it has a curve on it, which makes it easier to use. I do also have that tool amzn.to/2sDBlFN It is easier on the hands. You can also use a spoon! Try the spoon and see if makes a difference :) hope this helps!

Thank you for your help. This was the 1st time I was going to try "Stitch in the Ditch". My problem is, I already I ironed & lightly starched the back side of my rows open! I watched how to do this long time ago, to help the fabric lay flat. It looked like I shouldn't have ironed them open, to make a hill, on one side of the ditch. I'm going to hate ironing them back to one side. Can I still try "stitch in the ditch" with leaving them ironed open ? Or should I just Ditch it, & do it on the next quilt I make?
@jolynnrood96504 жыл бұрын
Never mind I read the comments from a year ago, where you said, "not to sew in the center because it will weaken the stitch. Instead sew 1/4 inch over, to sew on 2nd layer of fabric underneath. I saw that commented on twice, so I think that's right. If that's not right let me know.
