Really enjoyed your video! I have a children’s coloring book that has VERY basic cute coloring pictures. There’s even a beach ball on a page by itself! Point is, it has over 200 pages of really cute and simple pictures that I have used for children’s quilts.
@@HandiQuilter this works really well on solid fabrics, but I have trouble with markings showing on print fabrics,...even using the blue chalk. .I guess using the paper is the only method that will work.
Thank you for showing how to use the resizing device. I received one in a give away and thought, what would I use this for a stashed it. Oh my the posibility...... Now I have to find it. I love these video please keep making them.
This is great, but while watching I was thinking, instead of stitching just the holes into the paper, why not just quilt through it? I mean then you would need more paper for every design... but cut out the pouncing step altogether....
you prolly dont care but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all of the latest movies on instaflixxer. Been streaming with my brother recently xD
What foot do you recommend to use for stencils? If the idea is to be able to look ahead I find the ruler foot gets in the way and depending on the direction I am going the open toe foot too. I found the Glide foot to distort the line if you try to look through it. I have been trying to use the microfoot but am not getting my stitch lines as smooth as I would like (I need more practice!). What speeds and stitch lengths would you recommend? Many thanks and greetings from Germany.

You are so welcome! We'll keep making them! :)
It also works to determine how to resize blocks. If you want a 12 " block instead of a 10" block, it will tell you how much larger to make the blocks.
You two are amazing! Learn so much from you! I have always wanted to make my own stencils! Will be using your method for sure! Thanks
You are so welcome!
Such a great tutorial! Thank you!!!

You can keep the chalk from bouncing off by lightly spraying with hair spray. This works well when you stencil before putting on frame.
Great tip! Thank you so much.
Thank you - great tutorial! Thank you!!! I’ve seen several people say that they never use the blue straight - they mix it half and half with white.
Great idea.

@Jamie Titus definitely, have been using instaflixxer for since november myself :)
@Jamie Titus Definitely, I have been using instaflixxer for months myself :D
@Jamie Titus yea, I have been using instaflixxer for years myself :D
The size you want divided by the size you have. Then, multiply the decimal answer by 100 to get the percentage.
Can the Golden Threads paper be put through the printer/copier?
Yes, it has been done. You'll need to cut it to the size and do one page at a time.

Such great questions! I hope someone comes back and answers them.
Hi! How do we purchase that round thing to calculate the size to amplify of my motive? Thank you! I live in Brazil and I will have to shop online!

@@HandiQuilter thank you very much indeed!!
I've been looking for the Proportional scale, looked on Handi Quilter's site, to no avail. Where can I get one please??

The copy machine idea would be great if one didn't live out in the boonies and worked from home...where there are no copy machines.
You could use a pantagraph instead of a copying machine
Had to look up pantograph and how you could use it.
You could use a window or light box to copy by hand
