    The darker fabrics make the blocks look like they’re 3-D. That is so interesting! I love it. And thank you for making these blocks so easy to understand.

    I have always loved the look of this block. It is a great technique to showcase large print novelty fabric and so easy to construct. I do not care to use precuts with pinked edges but sometimes it's unavoidable. Nice tutorial! Thank you for all you do.

    Good tutorial, Susan-Claire. That was a clear explanation of how to deal with the pinked edges. I have the same machine as you are using, but I have a hard time using the ¼" foot, because of the wide feed dogs. My seams swerve at the ends. Yours seem to go straight out. Any hints?

    • @anniequilts
      @anniequilts 3 года назад +2

      you just need to be careful when feeding the fabric through. When you get to about a half inch from the end, push the fabric toward the foot so it doesn't veery off or you can use a stylette . When you get about a half inch from the end, position the stylette up with the needle at the end of the patch being sewn. As you feed the last half inch into the needle, keep the stylette lined up with the needle. It is narrow so can go right up to the needle if you want as long as you are using a foot with an open front. As to veering off at the start, when you finish sewing a patch, continue to sew off to a 2 inch or so scrap of fabric and sew right to the end of that fabric. Leave it under the needle. When you start to sew your patch, lift the foot a bit and position your patch right up against the end of the scrap, which should position your patch right against the needle. This stops veering off at the start and also stops the needle/machine from trying to eat the start of a patch.
