I'm working on the How Do I Quilt It Challenge & needed some more ideas for the smaller areas that I haven't quilted yet. Thanks for reminding me that I have the multi-clamshell ruler and giving me some ideas for irregular shaped areas!
Okay, I started off thinking, Oh I can just get one ruler and it'll be fine. Ha! A collection it is! Really fun using shelly this week. But, the best thing I have discovered may just be that....when I cut the last two fingers off my gloves, I can hold my glass of wine much better.
Wow, I love how well thought out Shelly is. It works up-side down.
I love your designs & I have some of your rulers they are 👍 great.😊
I can hear the excitement in your voice saying you love what you're doing. Thanks so much
The lessons are great and I feel like I’m getting somewhere in this slow journey to FMQ.
Wow! This looks so much easier than I thought it could ever be!
Thanks Angela for all of your helpful video's. All because of you, I finally just did it! I tried quilting and I absolutely LOVE IT. Thanks again Angela, and I look forward to the Midnight Quilt Show making another appearance because I can now do the up all night version
Love your positive, upbeat spirit. 💕
Thanks for your help with the rulers now we can get to work on our quilts thank you again from AUSTRALIA
Thank you so much for these videos. I splurged o a long arm and this gives me the confidence to quilt on it!
You are simply the BEST...Many thanks as your tutorials are my inspiration.
Angela I love the clamshell ruler. You have made this look so easy! I hope I can get to that point soon. I know it’s “practice.” Thank you for your great videos and for making them available.
Just love watching what you can do thankyou
I really like your new haircut!
The little line on the legs part of Shelly ruler help to make sure the curve goes deep enough on the return pass.Just discovered this!
I like the pacing of your commentary. No fluffy tangents, just a lot of good information for my ten minutes of time.
Thank you for doing these videos! We appreciate you sharing all your talents with us!
Looking forward to the clams! Again great instructions! Thanks
Thank you Angela.....always an inspiration!
You make it look so easy
Can't wait to get well after hand surgery so I can start using my rulers!
Thank you for all you do!
You are inspirational ! Thankyou
Sew exciting!
Thank you for your helpful videos.
Very beautiful and easy way.
This is definitely a favorite design and a a ruler I have to get. Thank you Angela for making it look so easy.
Pretty. Neat
Can you make a separate reference page for all of the motifs you’ve covered so far? (Easier to find.)
Do you not have to baste your quilt, batting and backing together before you start quilting it.
Looks like fun, hate that the rulers are so pricey...I want them all!
You make it look so easy. But I noticed how tight your hands were pressing to hold the ruler sturdy. Do your hands hurt and how do you feel with it? I'm 53 and "Arthur" is starting to make things more difficult.
@Karen S how ling have you been doing it? I'm just buying my first machine...don't even have it yet. I'm wondering if those little handles would help? I'll need to see how much space I have. Maybe I can just slide my hand in the handle. 😉 Thanks for the tips. 😊
I have a couple of issues using rulers. One is that I have a low shank machine and I saw that you have new rulers for that. The second is bulky seams. Ugh. I iron to the dark side. Do you press your seams open?
So on a sewing machine, I was told to always start in the middle, but it looks like you started at the end. That would be so much easier.
I start in the middle because this is the hardest point but sometimes it depends on the quilt. In addition, i found that there is always a shift of layers in the quilt sandwich. If you start in the middle you cannot skew your quilt. That happend to me once....
I am wondering about thread color. When a design crosses over two fabrics should the thread match the lighter or the darker fabric?
This is a good question. I have 3 quilts with pieces that crosses over, so anxious to hear some suggestions. I did quilt an overall design using variagated thread and it turned out pretty.
Angela. I am having an issue with the foot jumping a bit. Does that mean my point if contact is not secure against the ruler. I am quilting on a longarm. I am also finding I have to adjust my foot up as my needle will stick in the seams and wknt go up and down. Help!
Great video, question, Can you make the Orange Peel design with the smaller multi clam shell ruler? i.e. Using one of the smaller circles on the multi clam shell ruler, hope this make sense, Thanks so much
Yes! They will just be a little smaller :)
Finished the top for a dresden plate block. The " plates" . were hand pieced by my grandmother. They were given to me by her daughter{my aunt}. Both are now gone. I really want to quilt it on my machine but I am afraid I will ruin it. Any suggestions for the quilt pattern, Love your show
Angela great video learning alot but my comment refers to FMQ. Is it right to reduce your speed on your machine & press your foot pedal to the floor for FMQ? I have heard about this & had questions about it. Thanks Shirley
The main key to good looking stitches with FMQ is to make sure your fabric moves slower than your machine. It doesn't matter what speed your machine is. I do find that my quilting looks better at a medium speed because it seems like if my machine is going full bore I tend to move my fabric to fast.
Questions: In your sample you have arcs coming out of the waves, are these quilted first or after the waves? Also, what is the best email to contact you, I have a question about you teaching a lesson? Thank you I have learned so much and love having the guided practice. Built skills and confidence. Very well done!!!!
Like the glove. Where can I buy it ?
I guess what I don't like after watching the videos, is that you don't pin or spray baste to hold your top smooth. I keep noticing how when you are showing how to do the quilting you are getting bunching of the quilt top. How do you avoid this???
How do you do the wavy lines with a calm shell pop?
So, how can we do these designs with other rulers? Like the “orange peel” shape you showed? Thanks.
Can we buy these rulers from you?
How do I know if I need a high or low shank ruler/
Like the video Angela, maybe you could work the next one out speaking a little slower. Thanks, I can comprehend it all so much better.
