Edge Stitch Foot

This is the foot I used for the top stitching on the quarter circle for the "Fan Quilt".  I almost fell of my chair when I first used it.  I could not believe how consistent and perfect it look.  Next I used it across the raw edge of the fan blades.  I adjust my blanket stitch slightly smaller than I normally used, but WHAM! Scored again!! This made following along the edge so easy with such pleasing results.  I'm pretty sure this is called a Edge Stitch foot, check with your machine dealer or local Sew and Vac to see if they carry one for your machine.  Its well worth having this one in your bag.

The Beginninng Quilting Class for July and August

I love this quilt!  It was fun to make and of course, I love the fabrics.  I know it looks difficult, but when you break it down, its sooo easy.  That's why I included it in my Beginner's class.  Tools will be an important factor in making this quilt.  Be sure to pick up a 15 degree fan ruler.  It may be called something other than a "Fan Ruler" like triangle,   but you need one that is long enough to do a layer cake.  The edging foot was sooooo helpful, I incourage you to get one.  Once you know how to use it....it will be one you use alot.
