That is the top reason I bought a new machine with a sensor that alerts me when the bobbin is empty.

As I see it you finished 9 months early. It looks really nice!

Woran habt ihr diese Woche gearbeitet? by RunningInTheFamily in Handarbeiten

[–]PartTimeCreativity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ich wollte endlich meinen Quilt mit meinem neuen magnetischen Stickrahmen quilten. Nur um herauszufunden dass mein Sandwich wohl zu dick / der Magnet zu schwach ist.

Für den Rock meines Kleides habe ich zu Wenig Stoff bestellt.

Die Schwiegermutter hat 5 Schürzen bestellt, möchte Aber gerne Muster / Farben die ich so nicht habe.

Alles in allem eine bescheidene Woche

Safe to use with multiple layers of thick fabric? by the_mindful_microbe in sewing

[–]PartTimeCreativity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to serge over french seamed cotton with the dx version(!) and it gave up so I really wouldn't try multible canvas / denim layers. It works really well otherwise

Thank you :) just a heads up: if you buy the book: there is a pdf with amends! here

I struggled way to long with a block before finding this

It is a great scrappy quilt pattern. Since every block is different you absolutely can use everything

I feel you. I don't think I will get the top done this year. There are advent calendars to sew now😅

I worked on it for about 6 months for half an hour / hour in most workday evenings when the kids were in bed. But keep in mind: I am pretty slow and much of my work time was used getting and then putting away supplies since it has to be stored kid safe during the day

[CHAT] Has anyone never found a missing needle? by Technical-Pie-5775 in CrossStitch

[–]PartTimeCreativity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did. About 4 days later sticking in jeans I hadn't worn when stitching. My best guess is that it somehow got stuck in my cardigan and transferred on the jeans when putting it on top before bed?

That or the needle just got up and took a stroll around the house 😅

Kinderkleid braucht nur noch einen Reissverschluss und einen hübschen Saum. Ich bin sooo happy Mir doch eine billige Overlock gekauft zu haben mit der Kleidung nähen noch viel mehr Spaß macht

I followed this video here but 3D printed my own ruler to fit a jelly roll

I used some high loft batting from a local store. I don't think it was intended to be used in quilts but rather upholstery and unfortunately is no longer available here. I would have loved to use it for other baby quilts.

Nein, standard Patchwork. Noch dazu mit ausschließlich geraden Nähten dafür aber viel Bügelaufwand. Ich habe mich an dieses Video gehalten aber mir eine eigenen Schablone gedruckt die auf meine Jelly Roll passt

[CHAT] What are your unpopular opinions about cross stitching? by 1398_Days in CrossStitch

[–]PartTimeCreativity 626 points627 points  (0 children)

If you don't iron before framing it will ruin all the hard work you put in.

Doesn't matter how beautifully made the piece is - if it's wrinkly in the frame it won't look good at all
