I put the painter's tape down despite having the 1/4" foot. Can't hurt. I did cut it so that the piece on my extension table and needle plate are separate, so i can still clean the machine.
Great tutorial, very informative. After all these years I still sometimes have issues with 1/4" seams. This is a great refresher! Hope you're doing well.
I always like to sew three pieces of fabric together and then check to make sure the center piece is the right finished size - the 1/4 inch seam does not always translate into the right sized finished piece due to variations in thread size and fabric thickness.
I have a question when you get to the end of your seam 1/4 inch. When turning a corner how do you know that your are 1/4 "from the end of the seam? I have enjoyed this series.
I you were making a quilt can you use different machines to do that? I don't use the 1/4 inch pressure foot. I broke a needle trying to do a zig zag stitch. I didn't think I use a reg open one
Hiya, Sorry to say, the mark you pointed to as a 1/4 inch is actually a 1/2 inch. The short line before that line is the 1/4 inch. Keep up the good work. Love your book and the stencils I perchased from you.
@@christineh7997 Did I not say how I think she does a good job? Well she does do a good job. I looked at my rulers to her ruler and if you go by markings mine would read 1/2 inch and hers reads 1/4 inch. I am still recomending her site as one to watch. I would not have paid our Australian postage, which is way over priced, if I was not happy with watching stephanie or by from her store. All the best to you stephanie.
Alda Hyett Hyett, My comment that I liked the tutorial was not an implication that you did not like it. How in the world did that get twisted and turned into you not like the tutorial?! BTW! Why did you even write me about the 1/2” marking you said she pointed to on the ruler? AGAIN this not my tutorial.
Not something I’ve ever heard explained to new quilters, sewists who may not be familiar with their machine’s feet. You know the old saying, ‘get started on the right foot’. 😂
Well now, is that what setting 30 is for? Damn, wished I’d known that about three years ago. Wished I’d read the manual all the way to the end. About 20 quid wasted on quarter inch feet, tape, gadgets. Argh

Such clear instructions. Great videos in this learning to quilt series. Thank you for making them.
I have a quarter inch foot and still have trouble sometimes. Great video!
You're such a great teacher! thank you Stephanie.

Not sure if things have changed in 3 years, but, it would be nice to see the overhead view when demonstrating things.
Great tutorial & reminder to check our seams. Where was this video when I began? 😂
Great tips!
Very helpful thank you.

Thank you for providing a fantastic 1/4” seam tutorial! What is the model of the Baby Lock Machine used in the video?

Hyett...this is not my tutorial. Anyone can make a mistake! I think she made a fantastic video.
Hyett...I watch her video again and it appears (to me) she pointed to and lined up with the 1/4 inch mark each time.

Thank you, Stephanie. Did you have the baby yet??
Tricia McFarland I’m so glad someone asked. I was chicken🤣
What is a scant 1/4" seam allowance used for?
