  • This week on the HQ Watch & Learn Quilting Show - Do you have thread dread? Do metallics make you mad? Are you scared of silks? HQ educators Kelly and Johnny show you how easy it is to use advanced threads and techniques on your longarm machine (these tips will help with your domestic machine too!)
    In this video, Kelly shows Johnny how to:
    1. Properly tensioning metallic threads
    2. Think about thread delivery with different thread types
    3. Embrace Monofilament threads
    4. Use two threads through a single needle
    5. Tie-off tips and other advanced thread techniques
    The HQ Amara was the longarm quilting machine used in this video.

    Kelly can you show us how to make a pillow on the longarm and play with some fun threads. It seems like the perfect size project to learnsome new techniques, play with thread and then have something useful afterwards. I think it would be a great watch and learn

    This was very informative! I've only been quilting on my domestic for about a year and just recently tried Monopoly. So thank you for showing how the different threads work.

    I just watched your UA-cam video on threads. I learned a lot. Thank you for sharing. I also have trouble threading the needle.

    In the mid 1960s, I did some thread embrodery using my streight stitch machine. I was playing and had no one to help me. Most of the thread I used was the thread I used for sewing. I have more threads available and a modern machine so I may try it again even on quilts this time.

    Love that background quilt!

  • @bookbeing

    Great video! Older eyes can really make sewing harder for some of us. I wonder if a built in needle threader could be added to these sorts of machines.

    I love you guys! I’ve learned more from your videos on many subjects beyond long arming that I can’t find enough of your videos! Think the Amara is what I’m going to chose!

    Very "knowledgeable." Way above my level! But it's good to know this is here if I ever advance this far! Good instructors.
