I lost my daughter in law a few years back and seeing this quilt makes me think it would be good to do one for each of her 5 children. I for one am always ready to watch any and all parts to making a quilt and I think machine quilting is interesting. Thanks for taking us along on your journey.

Memorial quilts are so special and helpful to those grieving. Thankful for you being safe and that things all have worked out. Hope you enjoyed your trip.🇨🇦

    • @sisterchicksquilting
      @sisterchicksquilting  День назад

      That’s one of the benefits binding with cuddle, it doesn’t revel or fray if you cut it right. And then the high nap hides the raw edge. It’s a great binding for certain situations.

She has an old dog that is 16 and walks her twice a day and puts her in a cart some. She worries about her, she feeds her special cooked healthy food. She said don't be in a hurry be careful life can change in a minute. So true.

    Thank you for showing the long arming work on the green quilt. Amazing how many different ways you can quilt, besides the tried and true overall (which I always get). My long armer, Linda, allows Cuddle, or Minky backing, but she doesn't love working with it. Btw, ❤ the quilting patterns and "extra" on the border- yeah, I teared up too. Oh- used your link & discount code to buy 3 of the little lights- for me and two quilty buddies (Christmas). ❤ this video!!

    Real life happens. There are many sayings but I totally understand crazy days, weeks, years. Go with the flow.
    I have had that flexible sewing machine light and love it. Mine cane with 2 holders so it can be used on 2 different machines which is perfect for me. As I get older, I need better lighting, especially at retreats or on vacation. Highly recommend it.
    The memory photo quilt was beautiful.
    The accident was unfortunate but you got repairs and should now be enjoying your time with April.
    Hope it is a great week. You deserve it.

    I'm sorry you're having a week but the timing of this video is PERFECT! I'm having one too. I'm a high school math teacher (don't hate) and the 1st week of vacation my exhaust went caput on the thruway while headed to camp, I broke my toe with the cellar door, and almost cut off the whole tip of my finger with pruning shears! Bright side.. no dishes for me for a week. Yahoo! Hope your trip is amazing

    Oh my!! What a week you had. So happy you get to meet April in person. The quilt is amazing and you and Michelle did a beautiful job finishing it. How special you are to do this for the family. I will definitely be buying that light for my machine. I had used a different brand and it stopped working too soon after buying. I like the fact that I can look into the bobbin area too. I have the same machine. I hope you and your family are feeling better.

    I made a Nancy Halverson quilt. I hand button hold stitched the entire quilt. When I took it to my quilter, I asked her to quilt it using a monofilament thread on top and bottom. She was reluctant but I assured her it would turn out great. She tested an area and used a diamond motif to stitch it. It turned out stunning and did not take away from my button hold stitching or the design. I suggest you try it on say a pillow to see what you think. I love the quilt and each design on the 12 blocks do not show any quilting. The monofilament looks fabulous. Just a suggestion.

    • @vikkivanveldhuizen2290

    Goodness, you've had a time! I hope July is boring in comparison, except for lots of good things!! I got a light like yours a few months ago and can finally see things I was struggling with, like hera marks on busy fabric and the edge of dark binding that matches the quilt border! It didn't take me long to discover that I could use it when I cleaned my machine instead of kicking the foot pedal out of reach (hopefully) and leave the machine on so I could use the light to see into the dark depths to clean my machine. Whew, the safety inspector would approve! Romper Room, yes lots of people are that old! :oD Hope you are both completely healthy by now and that your trip was amazing! Looking forward to your new binding hack! Happy Independence Day. May the 4th be with you! ;) Donna

    So sad. Blessings to the family and to you for doing it. When I want to bind a minky back I just cheat. I cut the backing about 1 inch wider then the front, bring it to the front , fold over, and sew down as if it was a regular binding. Saves half the steps.

    • @sisterchicksquilting
      @sisterchicksquilting  3 дня назад

      That’s how I started doing the binding, but then I would cut the Minky several times while trying to trim off the batting and it was such a huge issue for me. So I came up with this one which actually takes me less time because I don’t have to go slow and be careful about, cutting the Minky. But I say do whatever works for you.👍🏼😊♥️🐥
