    Fantastic demonstration! I’ve been hesitant to try using the glue that everyone has been showing lately and haven’t since a close up on hand basting. Great job and well shown/explained.

    Thanks for this wonderful instructional video. I have been wanting to try EPP but concerned because I thought it would be too hard. Your instructions have given me the confidence to try! Thanks so much!

      Thank you so much Diane! You can get the clover needle threader at your favorite Local or Online Quilt Shop! The wood base is from QuiltsandClappers shop on Etsy! Just search "Needle Threader Caddy."

    Wondering about hand basting over glue. Does it make it more accurate?

    • @modafabrics
      @modafabrics  4 місяці тому +1

      It might make the glue hold longer but probably not much more accurate! Using both methods would be a lot of extra work, but if its relaxing for you--go for it!

    Annie, in the video, Sherri used 1” Hexagon Papers. Are you able to share what size acrylic hexagon template Sherri used to cut the mini charms?

    • @modafabrics
      @modafabrics  4 місяці тому +1

      Hey Sharon! Absolutely--there is an acrylic template from Paper Pieces that is specifically for 1" hexies! It has the 1" hexie shape and then a 3/8" seam allowance. You can ask for it at your favorite local quilt shop- if they don't have it they can order it for you! Thank you for watching!

      I don't know about Sherri, but I usually use a 10 because it's thin but strong.

      Sherri loves the Binding Needles from Primitive Gatherings for her EPP work! I can't find a size on them but she mentioned those specifically! Hope this helps! I've been using size the size 9 piecing needles from Tulip! Most recommendations I have seen are a size 9/10.

      @@modafabrics I've been using the size 9 but it will not "thread" when I use the cute needle threader. Somehow it doesn't catch, so I was thinking that the needle eye is too small. I use Aurifil 100% cotton thread size 50wt. Should I choose a different wt thread?

    • @modafabrics
      @modafabrics  4 місяці тому

      I’ve noticed that my smaller eyes needles don’t work well with the automatic threaders! I just look in a variety pack and find a 9/10 that has a longer eye. Tulip also has a needle threader, we need to test it out!
