🌸Thank you Kari! I love to be helpful🥰 Practical tips and handy techniques for wonky whoopsies are wonderful because Reality is Real!😳🙄😬🤗😆😉 Thanks for watching, liking, commenting and sharing SederQuilts!🌸
Amazing. I was board basting my quilt and the bottom border was wavy. I used a little MistyFuse and the border is nice and smooth ready for basting. THANK YOU!
🌸You are so welcome! I’m glad you find my Quilty Stuff to be helpful! 🥰I’m using MistyFuse today to repair and strengthen a well loved Velveteen Rabbit type quilt!🌸
I am a little late in finding you but this is brilliant! I have borders I am working on now that I just can't get to behave. There is some bias in the quilt blocks that I must have stretched but the overall quilt it just too pretty to scrap! Thank you so much for posting this.
🌸Thank you for finding my channel! Hopefully you will find many of my Quilty videos to be helpful (we have over a hundred 🎥) Borders can be so fun🥰 ...and sometimes frustrating😬... but there are Oodles of good options to puzzle 🧩 out fun ways to fix them up fancy!🌸Breathe and Enjoy!🌸

Thanks for the tips on how to ease in the extra fabric on the border. I'm curious about that black handle on the ruler since I haven't seen one like it before. Do you buy the black handle separately, drill holes in the back of the ruler and then screw the two together? Or did you buy the ruler with the handle already attached?
Thank you, Newbeequilter, for the the excellent question about my favorite old O'Lipfa ruler with the No-Slip handle... it is reposition-able for left or right hands, too! They no longer appear to be available. But if enough people ask O'Lipfa for them....maybe they would make them again. I feature this wonderful tool in many of my other videos on Rotary Cutting with TWO Rulers... ruclips.net/video/9m9kOpusyk0/видео.html, and marking a Design Wall...

SederQuilts, I quilt on a home domestic but am in the market for a long arm so all the tips and tricks of the trade are beyond valuable to me! Thank you so much for sharing!
Anitra Marinchek 🌸ohhhhh, I love teaching, encouraging, and inspiring others to enjoy Quilting, too! What brand of Longarm are you planning to purchase? I am impressed with Handi Quilter... they are constantly improving the technology, free updates to incorporate users suggestions, new features, and fixing reported issues. But see if you have a helpful retailer near you (of any brand) ...good hands on, in person local support is very nice!
🌸It still works nicely... it looks like a seam in a pieced border ... if your quilting design stitched the folded edge down well enough, great! If not, then I top stitch or use a blind hand stitch to secure the “faux seam”. 🌸
Kay Marl 🌸Tell Iris I sent you 😉. I love how easy MistyFuse is to work with. Be sure to buy the Goddess sheets! Oh goodness they are wonderful! She also has nifty reusable tracing papers and all sorts of cool products! 💗Enjoy! Tutoluu 🌸
It's me again Paola! , another question, when you put tucks in a quilt or fix quilts with wavy borders do you tell the owner what you have done? I thought I was doing the right thing when I told my customer there was 1, yes I said 'one' tuck in her quilt she was not happy at all and she never ever came back again. Another one which was really bad I ended up putting about 6 tucks in it, I dropped it off to her as I was going past her house she didn't have any money so I said to drop it off later. Whether it was due to the tucks I don't know but it took me 18 months to get payment for that quilting. I live in a small village so I have to be careful what I say, I had reminded her nicely twice that she hadn't paid me. She even knocked on my door asking for sponsorship I felt like saying I'll sponsor you when you pay me, but I didn't I'm not like that. Anyway before I bore you any more, what do you do? PS thank you for all your help, I still have lots to watch of yours on utube
Kay Marl yes, always ask first. Give options. Let them choose and decide. Hopefully the client mentions she had a little difficulty with the borders and you can get her blessing to tame the ruffles. Preferably, look at the Quilt together when they first bring it to you. I press the quilt tops before I load. Good time to inspect. Lay them on a flat surface to look for fullness. Take photos...measure. Document. Offer choices get permission. Always try to ease it in, rather than using a tuck. Try to make it as invisible as possible... use an existing seam if possible. Be creative with the density of your stitching design (quilt that fullness out of there) I have a couple videos that show how to embrace the fullness and be creative with the stitching choices. Offer double batting. Use soup cans. Starch pin press and pray. Some quilters refuse to work on lumpy bumpy quilts. Do your best work as though you were making this for your favorite person in the world 🌸blessings upon blessings 🌸

SederQuilts we are awaiting the HQ Amara! We were going to get the Fusion but the only room that would fit in-house my daughter’s playroom!
Anitra Marinchek ❤️oh, you will LOVE it! Have fun! Breathe and enjoy🌸
how well would this work on a fabric that is not so busy?
🌸It still works nicely... it looks like a seam in a pieced border ... if your quilting design stitched the folded edge down well enough, great! If not, then I top stitch or use a blind hand stitch to secure the “faux seam”. 🌸
Great info, I will be purchasing misty fuse asap😂

Where do I find Iris?
Kay Marl could you send me a friend request on fb? Then we can pm and it’s easier for me to send you links.
