A ruler foot that will fit all of my sewing machines -
A sampler set of rulers -
And a new book - Braided Bargello Quilts by Ruth Ann Berry - ;))
I've already read the book from cover to cover -
And I played with the ruler foot a little -
But I didn't get very far because I took a break to FMQ the Christmas Block Table Topper 6 x 6 -
I love the look of the "curved crosshatch" -
Or - at least - what it's "supposed" to look like - LOL -
So - now that that top is quilted and I'm technically "between" projects -
I want to play with the rulers some more -
Especially now that I see that Gene has been playing his new ruler foot and ruler -
And he's having way too much fun - LOL - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
Hang in there! You can master ruler quilting. Be sure you put that "gripper" stuff on the bottom of the ruler. It makes a huge difference.
ReplyDeleteI had the heart bargello quilt book years ago and made a queen size heart bargello quilt out of batiks, which is the only quilt I own for my bed. It was so difficult and precision nerve racking, I sold the book to get it out of my house. Hope you have a much better time. I do love that quilt, but making it made me nuts.
ReplyDeleteI have the ruler foot for my machine but haven't tried it yet. I told Gene that I'll need to take a class at my local shop if I decide to use it. I don't know if I'm coordinated enough to manage all those moving parts...LOL.
