So proud of myself...not as dumb as i feel sometimes

My seam guide seems to move on me or maybe I’m just not skilled enough but I do better with painter’s tape. Very handy stuff. I'm going to check out the Hera Marker though. I love gadgets.

I haven't used my hera marker yet. Does the crease actually stay in the fabric for a while? Seems like it would disappear too quickly.

I have seen gadgets like that Hera marker and have wondered the same thing

To lady that sent me a message about this post it won let me respond back so I am goin to post my info here. The machine hubby got me was a Pfaff creative 7570 and I have found the books for it but apparently some folks think its printed on gold laced paper and the ones I have found are out of my budget range. My sweet sweet hubby just wen on the fact that I wanted/needed a new machine and that his moms 40yr old pfaff still works like new but I know from reading after purchase that this machine is a workhorse and a good machine but just not as user friendly as some machines. I love it and him for trying so hard. His hobby is chainsaws and he sold his favorite one to get me this machine.

I draw only one down the middle then I use the tool to keep my lines straight. My tip of the day. Here is a pic of the walking foot with the seam guide Attachment 26184attachment.

Thanks for this...I have a boning tool for paper crafts which is exactly the same thing, I'll have to try it.
