- Hey all,
Big thank you to Janome and Kelley for this video. We are today on the Janome QMP20 with Pro-Stitcher. For those of you with Pro-Stitcher Lite, you might have the Mark feature, depending on the version you are running.
I'm so excited because today Kelley Janome aka Kelley McKenzie aka KelleySoSew is going to show us how to make a bigger crosshatch with Pro-Stitcher and have it look perfect every time. Megan Best was the first one to show this technique, make sure to check her out at BestQuilting.com! When Kelley wanted a larger scale, she needed to come up with a way to do it herself. She is going to take us through the steps of creating the base design, then enlarging it to the size we are looking for. Then we need to set up the E2E to our design size specification. We decided on 5 inches. Then we stitch out the first two rows and use the MARK feature to create the center area. Because we are using the stitched lines and not the computer screen, it looks perfect every time. This is definitely something that I am going to use and I think I have the perfect quilt waiting in the queue.

AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT'S JUST QUILTING!!!
Absolutely awesome, great work. Thank you sew much.
That's a great method to tuck into our toolbelts. Thanks to both of you! (Okay, and Megan, too.)
Love this method. I can't wait to try it!
“We did not Ron Popeil this.”
😂😂 I wish quilting was that simple. Great video!! I’ve always struggled with lining them up. Now my crosshatch quilting can be perfect every time!! I always learn something from your videos. Thank you!!
I caught that, too! He's losing his younger audiences, on that one. "But wait, there's more!"
@@sandybrown4764 Just set it and forget it. 🤣
Great video
Kelley’s instructions are great! She is a very good teacher!🌸
The quilt hanging on the wall is gorgeous!
Can you tell us the pattern, please? 🦘🦘🦘
I asked her and she said she just saw something on Pinterest
Great technique! Would you recommend doing patterns like chicken wire like this as well? That one gives me issues when lining things up. Thank you both! Keep quilting and having fun.❤
That design stitches in a different way. I believe there is an updated version of the design in the files section of Pro-Stitcher Posse that is easier to use. You should be able to download it free.
OK, I have a question… Maybe I wasn’t paying attention enough so maybe you mentioned this if you did I apologize. Would we stitch out the entire quilt with that 5 inch gap in between and then advance back up to the top and then put the in between.
“We didn’t Ron Popeil it” 😂😂😂
Do either of you have a video out where you determine the speed you want any given design to stitch out? does your thread or design matter regarding speed in other words.
If I’m doing a smaller intricate design I will slow my machine down to about 60-65. For everything else it’s usually 75-80. Acceleration is always 35-40
@@adamsewfun. OK, thank you!
Does the pattern stitch left to right and then right to left to form the crosshatch in each row?
It doesn’t, we stitched it left to right each time. With all the straight lines, you will get much better results always going left to right. When you duplicate the design, you can swap start/end on the new design and baseline that swap. Then it will go one way and back the other.
wish Adam hadn't constantly interuptted and just allowed her to demonstrate without stopping her; she did a tremendous job of explaining
