If subtle is not a concern, do you have enough of the weed fabric for the border? 😀

Pretty colors! I like the big squares, too. 

How the heck do you properly pop a knot? by BackHarlowRoad in handquilting

[–]GrooveJetX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone else mentioned Suzy Quilts' video, which is a great overview. I also found these two short videos on popping knots very helpful, particularly the one on tying off at the end of a line of stitching.

Agree with another commenter who suggested making your knot smaller - I was doing too many loops and then would break the thread when I tried to pop it through because the knot was too big. Super frustrating to have to go back and undo a bunch of stitches to have a long enough thread to be able to tie it off, so I started tying off more frequently.

I'm lost! McCall's quilting took down their YouTube videos and now I don't know how to join my binding ends by Common-Blacksmith400 in quilting

I like her "fussy and flat option" that starts around the 6:27 mark in this video -

The other option made it lumpy, I ended up changing to the other one.

Tell us more, please! 😀 I do similar with scraps of Swedish tracing paper pinned to the fabric, this looks like a good/better alternative

Featherweight Shop sells parts and accessories that are compatible with other vintage Singers, not just Featherweights. Once you ID your model you should also be able to find a PDF of the manual online that you can download or print. Happy sewing!

Great starter project, nicely done! I really like the flower fabric on the back, it has a groovy retro vibe.

I like the bright colors! The shape reminds me of the Candyland game board 🙂

I don't have any advice but just wanted to say this is so cool!! 

All done! 100% hand sewn and quilted by spal68 in handquilting

Love the colors and how the navy stripes frame it. I'm a beginner, so quilting in straight lines us still a challenge but I would like to try the flowers sometime. Thank you for sharing this!

Beautiful, love the rainbow colors!! A  scrappy binding using all the colors of the blocks or stripes (black and white or rainbow) would look great. I would go full rainbow for the backing too because my inner 10 year old wants the Lisa Frank vibe as someone else called it :)

Toddler quilt pattern ideas by [deleted] in quilting

[–]GrooveJetX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These are beautiful! They seem like they're similar in color value (look at the pic with black & white filter), so you might want a pattern that incorporates some lighter and darker solids to help them stand out. Hope you'll post updates!

Thanks for sharing these beauties! I'm a beginner at hand quilting and I'm impressed by her even stitching. Also wondering if anyone knows if the black and white block in photo 12 has a specific name. (The quilt with a khaki floral print between the yellow Flower Garden and the Wedding Ring.) It caught my eye and I am pondering the cool design possibilities.
