Oh, yay! Something to watch before going to bed tonight! I so look forward to your videos, Tammie. I found you not long ago, but I've worked my way through all of your past videos. Thank you for providing such a positive, gentle spirit in quilting and in life!

Don't you love the memories that come when we pull out those older books! I can't bear to get rid of them.

Love your quilts, funny how we talk about our mistakes or beginning journey of not so good stitching. Very few people notice but us. I used the orange peel for the first time. Picked out a complete row and restitched. Much happier with it.

It would look so awesome to do a two circles recreating the eclipse . It shows a very unique day. We felt the temp go down about 10 degrees. The eclipse alone now makes me want to do a temp quilt. Thanks for sharing

You did a great job learning the skill to freemotion your projects. The Turkey is lovely! I went straight from following a pantograph on the back of my quilting frame with a laser pointer to adding a digital automation program to my Grace quilting machine. It makes me a happy quilter going from picking fabrics and pattern, sewing, quilting, binding...just like you said. Loved your personal projects as well as the beautiful quilts you quilted for others. Now I'm going to go rewatch the MSQ Pinwheel Charms Table Runner video. Thanks for providing the link!

My pleasure!

One thing that I really appreciate in a quilt pattern is the finished size of the block at each section you make. That way you can correct any size issues as you go along, it guarantees that the finished block is the right size. Pam Buda who is one of my favorite teacher and pattern makers, always puts that in her quilt patterns.

So true! Checking your progress at the end of each section is a great way to be sure you are happy at the end.

The small brown one you made to practice on looks like the Karen Brown baby quilt she used to determine shrinkage of cotton and batting. You do nice work. Thank you for sharing! P.S. I had the Lynette Jennings book too!

Sally did a fantabulous job coordinating the fabrics on her turkey trot! That's a gorgeous quilt! I like the Baptist fan in it, too! The flannel quilt looks so cozy! I am a real fan of flannels. I wear lots of flannel shirts.

Regarding your UFO with the embroidery, I think you should quilt it. It’s a gorgeous quilt and I would consider the embroidery flowers that you did as artistic license. Quilt it.

I have been to the Grand Canyon and what an experience. It almost looked like I was looking at a picture. So vast. And the eclipse was almost total where I live. My neighbors and I talked about several experiences we have had with nature and the weather while watching the eclipse. A very enjoyable afternoon. Tammie your quilting journey is so interesting. Beautiful colors.

Hi love watching your channel it's always very informative and inspirational to see other people's colour choices and styles. A suggestion when you are sewing the temperature triangles would it be an advantage to number the hst blocks with the date order ( 1 - 30/31 ). Thank Anne.😅

Thank you for all the great ideas with your temperature quilt. I am also doing this quilt and I love your tip on lettering. I also love Thimbleberries and have multiple books. Thank you for sharing your quilts, so inspiring! Customer quilts are beautiful especially the Turkey trot.

Re the eclipse, yes do something totally different. Maybe even applique a 2 tone circle onto the day’s temp pieces.

The Turkey Trot pattern was a Jan Patek wall hanging. I bought the kit directly from her before there was an MSQ. Don’t know if they have an agreement with her. Jenny and Jan did a video tutorial together at one time. Have the TB book you showed but haven’t made as many from it as you have.

Thanks for considering it!

When you do more custom do you use manual setting, precision, etc.? turning off the stitch regulator scares the heck out of me but I know it sews more smoothly. I’m afraid I’m going to break something 😅 I stick with hand guided pantographs with the laser light quilt from behind.

@tammieearnest

Ай бұрын

I do not do any custom work, only digital edge to edge now. Prior to having Prostitcher, when I did hand guided work, I did begin experimenting with stitching in manual mode and actually got to the point where I liked it better. 🫣 It does take practice but once you get into a rhythm it’s not bad. It’s worth a try.

For eclipse day, how about you put that family photo on fabric 😍

Tammie, do you attach the binding with your longarm or have you ever tried that? Just curious. Thanks for the encouragement for us hand-guiders!

@tammieearnest

I still do binding on my domestic machine but I need to learn to do it on the longarm. 😊

Just found your videos and LOVE them. Do you always use same color bobbin and top thread. I have a Tiara II and the only thing I have mastered pretty well is a stipple or meander. How do you suggest I try other hand guided patterns? Thank you!

@tammieearnest

Ай бұрын

Yes I almost always use same color in both. Practice on a marker board with the dry erase marker held in your hand like you hold the handlebars of the machine. For your next designs, I would practice a paisley.

You could also try swirling in and swirling back out.

Do you use a batting on flannel quilts and if so what type?

Yes. Either 100% cotton or 80/20
