    I'm now watching the Live back as I couldn't last night. Thanks for the comments on the applique, I will now go back to producing more samples and maybe being a bit braver with contrasting threads 😵‍💫

    Regardless of how you press your seams, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, backstitch when you start and stop your seam. It will save you time and headache as you handle your quilt top. I’ve had to learn the hard way. Never again!

    I too baste on the design wall and use a 6" x24" ruler to help smooth out, the backing fabric I pin at the top. Then admit I use basting spray with my windows open for the next two layers. No more floor for me :)

    when you are sewing jelly roll strips together and sub cutting there is no way to reinforce the beginning and end of the seam though.

    Yay, we've been to the Mining Museum a couple of times now and really enjoyed it (and I am horribly claustrophobic) - learned so much. Living next door to Stoke on Trent we're in what used to be the Pits N Pots area (collieries and potteries) and it's always good to find out about our industrial heritage.

    Very informative. I have an open mind and will try your advice. I prefer Mettler over Gutterman. Mettler seems smoother and less fuzzy. I doubt I would try silk thread though. I did think people used same thread in upper and bobbin thread, except for embroidery machines.

    Hello

  • @michele6708
    @michele67086 ай бұрын

    I have naturally started doing a combination of pressing open and to the side based on what seems to work best for the individual blocks. This often means the final construction seams of the block are pressed open to handle the bulk. I also generally like to piece the quilt top in sections rather than rows or columns-just personal preference. That means either a lot more attention to pressing direction, or pressing open, so I usually press open. I do a stay stitch around the border of my quilts, especially if there are no unpieced borders, before sending to long arm. This ensures all seams are crossed, so more secure. I use a 2.0 or shorter stitch length, which also helps ensure seams don’t start to open when pressed open. I should probably do it before putting a top away for eventual quilting myself as well! I know lots of people want to set “rules” , but Philippe has the right of it. When you have enough experience, you will know that these techniques all have their place, and you have to consider the circumstances of the specific situation and make your decision. But you won’t gain that experience until you experiment. Test blocks are definitely worth the time and effort even though it can be tempting to jump right in! Thank you for addressing this oddly controversial quilting issue. :)

    I serge the edges of new fabric prior to prewashing. Any fabric lost under serging stitches would have been lost in fraying in the wash.
