Also, I would sure love another short quick tip tutorial where you can explain how to use Bosal double sided vs single sided fusible foam; and when you would use single sided and when you would use double sided.

    Hi Erica, You mentioned this tape in a video some time ago so naturally I had to have it 😊 So I used this tape for the first time making my first TOTM. It didn’t take long to realize what a game changer it is sewing diagonal lines! Thank you for that tip and this video explaining a few more tips. I’m sure we are all happy to see these short videos, you have plenty of sewing knowledge to share.

    Hi Erica, Great idea, as I used a magnetic guide which kept moving & not good for computerized machine & magnets. My bobbin plate is unfortunately right in front of needle & I'd have to cut it b4 & after the plate & the free arm slot. It is doable but a few pieces. Thanks for the mini tips. I enjoy them.

Of course we all love Spring and I have a lot of springtime favorites, but in addition to sewing 🧵, I love just sitting and feeling the gentle breeze across my face and anticipating my next sewing project! Would love to win the box!❤️

    Thanks for the tip about making a slit in the tape. I never thought of that. Will have to start using the Diagonal Seam Tape more often. I just have to make sure that I don’t have to replace the bobbin because the tape lays right over my bobbin case. See you next time.

    Thank you for this great tape tip!
    I would like help on using a button hole or zigzag stitch around the edges of fused appliques. I spent too much time in class preparing the appliques and never mastered the stitch. I think there was some puckering and wondered if I should put stabilizer under the applique to avoid puckers? I was sewing the cotton appliques to a single layer of batik. It's a UFO of many years.

    • @erica_arndt
      @erica_arndt  2 года назад +1

      Hi! I probably won't do that, but one tip I have is to make sure to trim the tire units down to as instructed in the pattern, and also make sure to press as directed by the arrows. Then when lining things up, make sure to pin at the tire intersections. That way they will all line up!
