I have been unable to find the Collins pressing bars anywhere, including amazon. Do you know if they are still available for purchase?

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

They are discontinued by Dritz :( - www.firesidequilts.com still has some.

What kind of iron is that? I thought it says Lis or eLis, but when I look on Amazon, I don't see anything with that name.

I have a question, the bias bar seems twice as hard as just using the Clover bias maker. Is there a reason you don't use Clover?

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

I'm not apposed to that technique but for myself I find my technique to be more precise for the quilts I make. I always had a hard time getting the smaller bias strips to run through the Clover tape maker evenly. Also I like the additional fullness in the look of the finished cable using the technique I teach. Thanks for watch and the comment

[@ingridslatta9100]

So I've been watching your vids and am interested in making the quilt, where do I get the pattern?

[@QuiltingWithNancy]

We're actually working on that right now. Stay tuned for more information.
