Me tooooo! I’m our 4-H sewing and Art leader … in Oregon
I’m sooooo new!!!! Only been sewing for a couple years! Was NEVER gonna do a quilt… sooo with that said, I’m 4 quilts in so far…. Yes I love the precise science… hate the math tho!!!
Years ago, on the Fons & Porter PBS program, Mary Ann Fons explained and demonstrated the nesting seams. She explained that, if the seam allowance on the top layer is headed raw edges first - toward the needle, the presser foot will help push that seam up against its partner undereath as it is moved by the feed dogs. This seems counterintuitive because we want to avoid having our seam allowances flip the wrong way as they go under the presser foot. So your point of holding your finger on that seam allowance is spot on. I try to remember to use a stiletto or my "Purple Thang" to hold the seam allowance in place as it gets even closer to going under the needle than I dare hold my finger. BTW I sure like the purple plaid.
Great job
Thank you Rob for all of your tips and videos!
Great video!!!! So wonderful to have a short video on an important skill to develop and focus on! Looking forward to more of these from you, Rob!
After a fun filled and busy day in my sewing room, I get to sit with my hand sewing and watch you. You are my treat. I hope you have a fabulous week ahead! Thank you for sharing this video!

A Purple Thang comes in real handy with holding the fabric down as well 👍
I love your videos and it was great to meet you in Vegas at the Sew Yeah Brothers shop. I was in the contest in October.
Love it and still learning
Thank you 😊
It took me several quilts to really understand what a nested seam was and why it was important…but once I did I felt like my quilting took a huge step forward
