FYI, the lines on a 3X5 card are exactly 1/4” apart. I carry extra cards for students. Put your needle in a line, line up with edge of foot , lower foot and check the setting.
Oh that’s a great tip!!! Thank you!!!
Thank you for sharing this information. I thought I was the only person in the world who couldn't sew a 1/4" seam.
Oh no you aren’t!!! For being so important, I’m surprised it’s not explained more, was definitely hard for me for a long time!
Me too !, I’ve been so frustrated ! I’ll try this !
I was about to give up until I saw this. I can't seem to consistently get a quarter inch and it's so frustrating!!
I have a quarter inch foot but for my newly bought cheap machine,I couldn't fit it.i am fond of quiling and thank u so much and i will buy
Me too. I end up having so much trouble. I made friends with my seam ripper.😂
Your instructions are complete, accurate, and clear. This makes you easier to listen to verses other presenters. Thank you !
You have no idea how your thoughtful way of showing us how to master the dreaded 1/4" seam allowance. I believe all of your viewers are enamored to your specific way of tutoring all the ways to make our quilting easier.🇨🇦
Thanks again!!!
You are a very generous person. God bless you.
THANK you for sharing this with us. I appreciate the tips to get our seams straight and right where we need. HAPPY HEALTHY QUILTING. ❤🎉😊
I love this video. Something that feels so hard, you have made it "sew" easy to make adjustments and make sure you are at a 1/4"🥰
My late auntie was a tailor, as were her parents, and one thing my mom & I picked up from them is that they were very selective about what measuring tools they introduced to their workspace and each single one of them needed to be tested for consistency with the others. They had one 'benchmark' measuring tape for reference. It has not occurred to me to test my sewing machine plate. Thank you for this video. All the best!
Your videos came across my youtube feed and sadly i almost scrolled past them and something told me to watch and im soooo glad i did! I just subscribed to your channel after watching a few of your videos . I cant seem to sew a quarter inch seem to save my life or bind a quilt very well and your videos have been amazing. You instructions are clear and understandable and make it possible for me to keep trying! Thank you so very much. Your an excellent teacher. Blessings from Texas.

If you have a Pfaff you can also get a 1/4 seam foot. The foot has small bar on the side that guides the fabric like similar to the way the magnetic seam guide works.
Yes! Those are great but still good to make sure they are accurate, do a little test and you know for sure!
Excellent video, most detailed I have watched, I’m new to quilting so this has been a challenge for me!
I’m glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching!!
