Math for On-Point Quilts
If anything, buy it at a QUILT SHOP. Avoid Fabricland. I have a shop here in eastern Ontario and I carry Hobbs. I carry 80/20-108" wide but can sell other types of Hobbs too. 80/20 just happens...
YOu could sew all your sashing strips together into one continuous strip then cut the length you need for each row to ensure your joins are staggered
I've been told the appraisal value is for insurance purposes only, not resale. Even then, the owner needs to have the appraisal in writing by an accredited quilt appraiser.
What does 108" wide backing usually sell for in the US? $12.50 US comes to $16.38 CAN. I have wide backing in my shop for $16.95 and $17.95 CAN for a "metre" length. Just curious
Not only is WD40 a no-no, but so is 4-in-1 oil. I know many people who think it's regular oil, but it's not and not recommended as a substitute for sewing machine oil.
This is the first I've heard. What I have heard is at one time there was a fear of using poly threads on quilts made of cotton fibers as the poly threads would cut through the cotton. This I...
Yes, it's a 30 degree ruler. You would need to cut 12 wedges. The ruler is 12" so you will get a 24" skirt out of it. Too make it longer, you can butt a 24" ruler up against your Fat Cat, then...
They also check if the diagonal joins on your bindings are going the same direction. I know someone who took a quilt judging course here in Canada and I asked her all these; except I forgot about...

We can get Dr. Beckman's here as well in my area (eastern Ontario, west of Ottawa) but only at Metro food chain. I've never used them as I still have plenty of Shout sheets from a trip to the US.
I dont find using the ruler difficult. I've made 4 runners now. I also did the Metro Rings and Metro Lattice.
I will admit the graphics and some of the instructions are not clear. I did some...
I made this table runner a few weeks ago for my shop sample. I had one student today so decided to make another while I showed her her to cut and sew the curves with the Quick Curve Ruler. She...
From what I see, your blocks aren't sewn together yet, are they? They look fine at this point. I dont think you will lose the points once all the blocks are sewn. Your outer HSTs, will finish ...
;) you're welcome ;)
Since I introduced it in my shop back in February, I use it all the time for joining my binding ends.
Along with the video on MSQC, check out the one from Fat Quarter shop. Sometimes having...
Home Stitches was Pam Clarke's company name. She is a well known longarmer. Her product line was called Designs with Lines. I did a quick search and found the stencils at Erica's

This was posted recently on Facebook, and maybe someone already did it here. I am considering not stocking these anymore in my shop. I would hate something happening to someone's quilt due to any...
I've done paper piecing on tissue paper. It's very easy to use, tears out more easily than copy paper or paper foundation sheets. It also eliminates a lot of bulk at the seams. You need to...
