That is something I need to learn. To go in all directions.
Just wanted t thank you. I am a newish self taught hand quilter and was using my middle finger. Gotta love UA-cam. I saw where you use your pointer finger so decided to try it. Oh my gosh. Game changer. It is so much easier for me and my stitches are way more uniform in length. Thanks for the suggestion!
thank you so much for teaching about hand quilting...most of those quilting today do it on the machine...they don't know what they are missing...
This is my second time with this video and the last one where you showed the simple ones your Dad made. I am starting to wrap my boards right now. We live in a very wet area of Hawaii and things just do not get here, but my knees were just screaming in pain from pin basting on the floor. Using 2 plastic saw horses and 2 boards to start with. Imagine your sewing machine, pins and needles all rust in the humidity. Never occurred to me. The land where everything rusts.
The plastic demo was great. - thank you 😊
Thank you. I enjoyed this video very much.
When I hand quilt, I use Aunt Becky; I have 5, so I am not hunting for 1. I put them into a sealable empty Prescription bottle. I love the control I feel with Aunt Becky.
Thank you Alex
I use a Roxanne thimble on my middle finger, using the ball of the thimble.
Thank you for showing this. Where did you get your index finger thimble?
Alex, missed the live production but have watched it now. Thanks for the GREAT advice and tutorial. Question- I can't get more than 5 stitches/inch!!! How can I get to 7/inch??? (PS - bought Aunt Becky's Finger Protector- can't use it. I need to feel the needle when it comes thru.) Love your show!
I don't know if this video chat room is still monitored. But I would like to raise a question. With regards to the twist of a thread, I was recently told (by a non-pro hand quilter) that it depends on whether you are a lefty or a righty which end of the thread you knot. That the twist is dependent on which hand and therefore which direction the thread will be pulled... Any truth to this?
Lol, my dad used to put that on all my scrapes as a kid in the 1960`s
Is the Floriani thread specifically made for hand quilting? Is it different from embroidery thread?
Alex, how do you get that triangle border on that windmill chain quilt.
I love the quilt behind does it have a name ?from Ontario🇨🇦
oh Alex I am so sorry you are going thru the mouse thing. :( We live in FL and when we moved into our home They had "remediated" but never sanitized the attic. Mouse urine can cause lung ..C...you know what I am saying? So be SURE to SANITIZE your attic.. it's so friggin' expensive. and have all the pipes in your roof SEALED with wire. :) good luck honey... :( much love
What about using thimble underneath work?
What is the name of the houses pattern that won best of show quilt?
Color My World
@@kathymeier3586 thank you
What about making them something like a quote for maybe because not everybody can put money on the go fund me or anything like that so some people maybe would probably make something for him to keep a moment that my husband that she did a football charity last year for Ukraine?
Oh my gosh this is great but it really does look like you are sewing your finger when you use the plastic!! 😳😩😆
