First time I have ever heard any one say to pull thread up at end of sewing as well. What a fantastic idea. I will always do that from now on. Thank you.
Me too . I have alway thought how to finish work with secured.
I know this was posted awhile ago but I wanted to say this is a fantastic video and the most helpful that I've found on RUclips! Thank you for sharing your quilting wisdom. Great channel!!
Thanks Leida - and i hope you share our channel with your quilting friends - Nancy
Thank you for sharing your wisdom! You’re a great teacher and such a pleasure to watch and listen.
Thanks! - Nancy
I just found you! Great info in all you videos, good info, well presented. Also THANK YOU FOR NOT having distracting background music that is in so many utubes!!
Thanks Beth! Glad you found the videos so helpful.
Thank you for this great video and I have to say, the background quilt is absolutely beautiful.
Oh wow, how informative you are. This is exactly what I needed to watch. Thank you so much.
You are amazing and so talented and a very good teacher. Thank you.
Thanks Kate :)
Very good I am a beginner and find it all so difficult but I do find your tips vert interesting.Gloria
Great tutorial can't wait to watch more.. Thanks
Love your teaching and the points you make! Thanks
Love this technique!! Thanks Nance! Nancy, will you be having a tut on how to choose great colors for your quilt? You always seem to put all kinds of color together in 1 quilt and it always looks great, if I tried that it would look like mud! Coordinating colors are fairly easy but I'd like to learn more how to put in those unexpected colors and pull it all off!! Hopefully its something you can learn instead of being born with it!!
See if our video, "How to Pick Fabric For Your Quilt" helps. Here's the link ruclips.net/video/YvyzUbU7pls/видео.html
Nancy do you use invisible thread for the bobbin as well when you do in the ditch? Thanks for the link too!!
No, when I use invisible thread in the top, I use a Superior Bottom Line thread in the bobbin.
Making a t-shirt quit for my son-in-law. He wants me to make a sleeve on the back in case he decides to hang it. I did not want to quilt on the front/back of these shirts. I do have fusible interfacing on the shirts. I plan on stitching in the ditch. Any advice? I have watched you since I retired in 2017 and began my quilting journey. You have taught me much. Thank you!
Hi :) and thanks for watching. You will probably want to do more then just ditch quilting around the blocks. If the quilt is ever washed it will need more quilting than just that. You can quilt on the t-shirts, just sometimes not on the design if it is done with a thick screen ink. I put the sleeve on after the quilt is quilting while putting on the binding, check out this video. ruclips.net/video/x5y5Z5mvC5g/видео.html
Thank you once again for a wonderful lesson. 8-)
Just a question on where do you start. I have always heard to start in the middle and work your way out
As usual another terrific video!
Nancy could you do a video on how to change a block pattern size? How to change for example a 6” finished block to a 9” finished block and visa versa. It would be so appreciated. I’m having the hardest time finding information on this subject that makes sense. Love, love, love what you do!
Thanks Sandra!
Thank you so much for watching and loving our show :) There honestly is not "simple" way to do what you are looking for but there are lots of books on the market that do. I design quilts in the Electric Quilt program and it does it for me. They have a simplified program also that would do that same and is only about $30 called "Quilt Wizard" so you might want to look into that - Good Luck.
This was so helpful.
Is the machine a Pfaff grand quilter? Can you drop the feed dogs. Where did you find the walking foot?
Thanks
DR
Did you mention what was in the bobbin? Is that also invisible?
No, when I use invisible thread in the top, I use a Superior Bottom Line thread in the bobbin.

Do we have to lower foot dog when use walking foot?
No, you must have the feet dogs up to use the walking foot.
That is interesting. I am planning on getting a walking foot.
I went to order several items from your site but it isn’t secure. Should I be worried if I do order?
Hello Sandy, no you don't need to be worried. If you are still not sure you can email me at quiltingwithnancy@gmail.com and i can send you a request via PayPal for payment and send out whatever you need - Nancy
OnPoint-TV and Quilting with Nancy Thx Nancy!
What is the pattern name of the quilt on the wall behind you? It is so beautiful.
Hi Bobbie - that is my Learning to Quilt pattern - the large blue quilt has an extended border of rail fences. You can purchase the book as an EBook or the hard copy book on our website - www.onpoint-tv.com Just last week we did a YouTUbe Live video introducing the book.
Thank you so much for the information. I will purchase the book and continue to watch your lesson. I enjoy them so much.
Ep. 207 watching you use invisible thread it must really be invisible I don't see it. LOL Where is the spool. I have the automatic threader on 2 of my singer machines and I can not get them to work. Ugh
Hi Donna, it is my experience that invisible thread doesn't like to work with more automatic threaders on the machines - it's a pain to work with but it's also a must for in the ditch quilting. - Nancy
I hate to think what would happen if I tried that after a glass of wine.
