I won 4 ribbons at the Orange County Fair (CA) with my Tula Pink Bitterfly.... Best of Show, the Division, a Judges Award and 1st Place. Sew excited... Anglea you were an inspiration.
You and Tula together!! A great deal. I learned machine quilting from you! I did enter my first quilt and got third place in a county fair!! This was 4 years ago. It was your carpenter star. Since then I have made 5 quilts and quilted on my domestic machine…two king, a queen , and several baby quilts. It can be done. People actually pay me the big bucks(hahahahaha) to make a quilt for them. I dream of a long arm one day but until then, I can do just about anything on my little domestic. Thank you Angela for your instructions!
Love all your videos, but especially LOVED this one showing the same quilt quilted three different ways. Thanks for these Thursday chats. I always look forward to them, even if I can only catch them at a later date. ❤️
Gorgeous quilting. Your ideas for design are wonderful. Live the pebbles and feathers. Your swirls really blend into the other quilting. So so beautiful. You should head your own who again and do lots of quilting designs.
I love learning about your thought process for quilting the Butterfly quilts. Maybe one day I will be as relaxed with my machine quilting. Outstanding video - thank you
Thanks again Angela. I was ruminating over what to quilt on a "All a Twitter" quilt I made that has small half square triangles and lots of fussy cut birds. This video helped me decide what to focus on. Love your videos and looking forward to another QAL. Gorgeous quilting!
Yes I def want to know about thread color over multiple color fabric for an all over design without messing up the pattern. Can hardly wait for that episode. Great video ❤️
The quilt and the quilting are just so beautiful!!! Both of you need lots of praise! I would really love to have a demo of your procedure for starting and, especially for ending without burying threads. I'm still new on my longarm and starting is ok but I have a lot of trouble doing the ending correctly! It always looks so easy but I always have so much trouble with the ends at the end! Finally, I love the "it depends"! It reminds me of one of my library school instructors who taught us cataloguing. Her most frequent remark when we would ask a question was "it depends"!!!
I love your videos! You did such an awesome job on Tulas quilt. The feather antennas were fabulous!! We came by your shop a few weeks ago. Love your place. Great fabrics too.
I have a book called Quilting Makes the Quilt which showed identical quilts with different quilting designs. It is so interesting to see how the quilting impacts the look of a quilt. This becomes especially evident when you see the same quilt pattern with different quilting designs. I learned a lot from this video. Thank you.
I had just watched Tula's video then I saw yours twenty minutes later! What a treat to see both of your perspectives! Beautiful workmanship from both of you! LOVE it!
I made this quilt before the pandemic after studying your first version. I'm excited to see that we both used Kimmy Brunner's swirly feather quilting design! I did refrain from the tiny pebbles, however. Thank you for your input into the quilting world; I've learned a ton from your videos.
I always worried about the stitches coming undone if Ididn’t bury the threads. But you made a really good point: if it takes forever to pick them out intentionally, the chances of them coming out accidentally are probably pretty close to nil! I also would really like to see you show the feathers on a longarm and how you connect them after advancing the quilt! Thank you! 🌷
I would give this comment five thumbs up 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 or more if I could, bc I wholeheartedly agree!!!!! Feathers on the longarm and please show us how you extended the spine of those feathers invisibly! Thanks in advance! 🌷
I would love to see a video on how you do part of the design then need to advance your quilt on the long arm! I haven’t been able to figure this portion of the longarming out. Great job! This quilting is my favorite.
Awesomeness! How many thread colors did you use and do you only use pins to baste the space you leave till you come back later for or do you thread baste as well?
I love your quilting. A couple years ago I made a complicated (for me) pattern by Edyta Sitar...Illuminate...and your inspiration helped me to quilt it. I used swirls, dot to dot, ruler, etc. It turned out great (for me). Thank you thank you. I would send a pic but I don't use Facebook, etc. Just wanted to say thanks for encouraging so many quilters to try all those designs!!!
You spoke about doing designs like feathers in sections. Could you show how you decide where to break it into sections and how you pick it up again . Your feathers are so smooth it does not give it away that it was done in sections. So beautiful!!!
LOVE this quilt and your quilting! When you are trying to decide what to quilt - do you create a quilting plan first - draw it out on a picture? Or do you have a vision and start quilting from your vision? Did you used to create a quilting plan to quilt from when you first started FMQ? Another question - are there any plans to package this as a BOM kit? Is your shop thinking about that? I would LOVE to be involved in that if you are! I am in such awe of your work and would love to come to Liberty again for another of your classes! LOVE THIS!!!!!
I have one of those dang full-time jobs that interferes with my quilting, so I get to enjoy your videos after the fact. I'm a new quilter and am working up the courage to start quilting my rendition of "Winter Solstice". Do you consider the back of the quilt when you design your quilting? I find myself wanting to outline each of the trees in the top to [sort of] repeat the pattern on the backside. I love your program (I subscribed), and enjoyed seeing you in Spokane, WA a couple of years back. Thank you, you're great!
Love all the quilts! Thank you for the wonderful advice through out this video. I have been quilting 7 years and am just getting more confident with my free motion work. Looking forward to the next video.
I have done queen/ king size quilt it is all 1 1/2" hexagons so it can be put together it sections my questions if it's all hexagons what wah do it quit it I know I don't want just lines because the style is a small hexagon then you see it morf into a star then it morfs into a hexagon then again goes back to a hexagon with a star into each corner to get it into a rectangle then grandmother's flower border. If I go around just the shapes there is too much space between each any ideas please please pretty please
You said don't do two layers of batting for a bed quilt- I DISAGREE! I used two on my king and I love the weight for the bed quilt. It stays on the bed that way, doesn't shift around, and absolutely traps the fluffiness of the under layer for extra warmth in winter. You are right, two layers helps the quilt to lay flat, and so it helps my bed to look made even when both my husband and I are tossers.
** I sent this question on your other video- I thought that i would bring my question to one of your new videos so that you are able to see my question''. My question is about free motion quilting' Thanks! I have a question. I am trying to put together a baby quilt & some of the fabric has unicorns & other baby things in the fabric. "Kind a Hard to explain?" but, my question is . How do you quilt a quilt that has pictures on the fabric that you don't want to take away from those pictures?? ... I hope that i am making sense? Would you do just straight lines & nothing special with the fabric to cause it to not take away from the fabric pictures? .. I hope that i am making sense? ..lol
I don’t, but (bc) mine (Amara) was getting delivered and set up yesterday and some key pieces of the frame were missing so I have to wait a bit longer! 😢 It’s ok, tho. 🤗 But I’m still so excited that soon I’ll be able to start using it! So, anyway, no experience on the King, but I have test driven the Amara 3 times and also APQS machines. They are very nice, too, with good stitch quality. But with them, you don’t get all the bells and whistles at the same price point. (Anywhere near this price point!) I also test drove the Moxie, but that’s not good for anyone with fibromyalgia or Carpal tunnel, bc it vibrates A LOT. It’s on a bouncier frame, which is ok for most ppl. IDK if this helps at all, but I just wanted to share! 🌷
@@gingerisrael3785 thank you! I will! And I understand bc it was really challenging for me to get to try out ANY longarms! It took three years of trying bf I Cd finally try out the APQS and 8 months to try the Moxie, so I feel your frustration! I’d love to hear when you make your choice! 😊
I was told that if you iron over it, it sets the ink. Not trying to scare you but I have a king-sized hand-pieced quilt top, that has been stitched into diagonal rows. Back in the day when these pens were new, nobody knew that and I pressed my blocks! It’s packed away, but I fear that when I find it, it might be trouble! That being said, Oxy clean can get out almost anything! I have decided that I should practice on scraps of quilt fabric. Draw on it, iron it, really well. Then try spritzing it and see what happens. If that doesn’t work, try soaking it or washing it in cool water, then detergent, and so on. If that doesn’t work, I’ll try oxy clean. You’ll want to start with a low concentration, and then work up, bc oxy clean can remove color if it’s too strong. I even used it to remove wood stove soot from some brand new clothes. Nothing else had worked, so I made a paste of it with water and put it straight on the garment! To my shock, it actually took out the soot. But it also took out some of the color; that’s how I know. So, you won’t want to do it that strong. I have used up to two cups in a washer load with sheets or towels, then let it soak up to six hours, but I wouldn’t do it that strong on a quilt unless you can’t get it out any other way. The soaking is what does it, then finish the wash. BTW, you can make your own with equal parts of hydrogen peroxide and washing soda. But it only remains active for six hours once you put the two together; so don’t mix up a batch ahead of time. Hope this helps. 🌷 PS: I have found that it’s best to not put detergent in with Oxy clean. After soaking in the Oxy clean, do two rinses to get all the Oxy clean out; then wash with detergent. The reason for this is that it seems to make the detergent leave a sticky residue on the clothes if you put them in together. I know it says on the package that you can put it in together but I never do that anymore.
I hope I’m not being disrespectful I am just kind of asking because I am a Quilter now and if I am going to be that detailed do you charge by the hour or is it still by the square inch
You are a true artist. May some of your work end up in a museum many years from now.
Exquisite quilting, honestly, I’ve never seen anything so gorgeous. 🎉
I won 4 ribbons at the Orange County Fair (CA) with my Tula Pink Bitterfly.... Best of Show, the Division, a Judges Award and 1st Place. Sew excited... Anglea you were an inspiration.
Your quilting really makes the quilt. Her piecing and color choice is beautiful.
Your quilting is spectacular.
You and Tula are a match made in heaven! Thank you for sharing these quilts.

Beautiful quilting!!!
Just breathtaking! What weight thread did you use?
Have you stopped showing us new quilt patterns? I always enjoyed those tutorials.
@angelawalters Do you use plain water to remove the Mark Be Gone Water Soluble Marker? Do you add baking soda?
I have done queen/ king size quilt it is all 1 1/2" hexagons so it can be put together it sections my questions if it's all hexagons what wah do it quit it I know I don't want just lines because the style is a small hexagon then you see it morf into a star then it morfs into a hexagon then again goes back to a hexagon with a star into each corner to get it into a rectangle then grandmother's flower border. If I go around just the shapes there is too much space between each any ideas please please pretty please
Hi Angela, do you mark before loading or when on the frame?
I saw this quilt the antenna area was breath taking. Do you quilt for customers or just professionals, like Tula?
This is just beautiful. I love both Tula and you!! Any idea of where I can get the pattern for her butterfly quilt?
I did the quilt in her original fabrics. It’s waiting to be quilted. I made it for my 7 year old Granddaughter.
Best friend quilting at a retreat where we each made blocks and then put them together to make a charity quilt and a Quilt of Valor quilt.
I got this butterfly quilt as a kit a few years ago. Haven't pieced it yet. Soon. LOL
When you are changing thread colors, do you keep the same bobbin thread color over it all?
Im pretty sure she does bc she only uses prewound bobbins which only come in a few colors
You said don't do two layers of batting for a bed quilt- I DISAGREE! I used two on my king and I love the weight for the bed quilt. It stays on the bed that way, doesn't shift around, and absolutely traps the fluffiness of the under layer for extra warmth in winter.

What type of batting do you typically use for bedding quilts?

At some point, will you address how you rip out mistakes/tension problems. It takes me FOREVER!!!
Enter me, please. Working on a raccoon quilt and a horse quilt for Christmas gifts. I made wall hangings for all my grandkids for Christmas too.
Is there no way to purchase the pattern?
Do you ship internationally?
Did you do the echoing with rulers?
Im having trouble deciding on a long arm
Between the King Elite 2 or the Amara?
Do you have any info that could help me choose?
I don’t, but (bc) mine (Amara) was getting delivered and set up yesterday and some key pieces of the frame were missing so I have to wait a bit longer! 😢 It’s ok, tho. 🤗 But I’m still so excited that soon I’ll be able to start using it!

I've loaded this video 3 or 4 times and the audio is out of sync with the video. Unwatchable. Ideas how to fix? is it me?
I am just starting out and used the blue marker and it would not come out even after repeated sprays of water. What am I doing wrong? HELP

Does Tula have a channel!!????
