Hi, I’m a new longarmer and I’ve watched your videos. I’m at the practice stage where I’m pulling old quilt tops out of the closet just to have something to practice on. Today I had a very old top - diamond blocks - that was a wavy mess. Using what I learned from you, I was able to quilt it so it’s flat and square! Thanks for your great instruction.
dphock 🌸Wonderful! I’m so happy for you!💃💃💃 Isn’t it fun to apply the new tricks and knowledge? Thanks for letting me know you find my Quilty Stuff helpful! You might also enjoy my short affordable online classes at SederQuilts.com🌸Enjoy your playPlayPLAY time🤗 Tutoluu!🌸

Thank you Funny I entered a comment on an earlier video I watched from your site and asked for a video about this issue.I am looking forward to working on the edge first, getting it stabilised, then adding my side clamps and continuing into the centre. You have been so helpful. Thank you thank you.

sandra stitt 💗Thanks! Stay tuned... I hope to post another video about this Quilt... showing the inner e2e ... which is actually a Border to Border... some designers offer b2b designs... I used a FMQ design that I Memorized and Computerized so it could be Utilized and since it is my own style of FMQ stitching... I can easily add a few extra swirls and curls and flowers to fill in any gaps. It is one of my favorite tricks!🤓 come back again... Tutoluu 🌸
Great solution!!! I can tell this wasn’t your first time dealing with fullness! Vintage fabrics have minds of their own however you are amazing & have tamed those waves once again! Thank you for being a great teacher 💞💞💞
Jolene Shindler Thank you! Yes ma’am 🤠it’s not my first rodeo😉 with those wild and wavy Borders! But I might need to post a follow up video... the reality of being a busy quilter, and multitasking... and being most careful about the topside... I found a wrinkle~crinkle on the back... I forgot to do the patty cake when I rolled back for my final Border to Border pass (slightly larger and in the center)... but it’s all ok... I have more tricks for that, too!🤓 Stay tuned for more Helpful Hints!🌸
Loriann Payne 🎉yeaaaay! 💗I love to encourage, inspire and share my knowledge! Yes, you can do this. Thanks so much for watching our Hundred Helpful Quilting Tutorials! I love to read your comments and answer questions. 🤓Breathe and Enjoy😎 Tutoluu!🌸
Oh, Francisca Denotti, you are so welcome! 🌸Like my Mama always says, “There’s more than one way to skin any rat!” Sometimes we get stuck in a rut of doing things a certain way... and in a perfect world, that way should be best... but I often find the “exceptions to the rule” to be very helpful in Quilting Real Quilts. Thanks for watching, commenting and sharing SederQuilts with your Quilty Friends!😎
🌸Excellent question! Usually I leave these “Piano Keys” stitches in place, as a border, to keep the fullness under control and pretty... and run the edge to edge design as a smaller, inner body size. 🤗If you stitch the edge to edge all the way out to the outer edges, theoretically you could undo those piano keys (if the e2e is dense enough)... or you could just leave the piano keys in place (as an added layer of interesting texture)... There are always Oodles of Good Options! 💃💃💃 Breathe and Enjoy your Quilty Stuff!🌸 Tutoluu!🌸
Chris Broehmer 🌸Absolutely! Figure 8’s also work very well to take up extra fullness, and you can also do a Slightly Fancy Meander (a figure 8 made of a WiggleDitch type line) ... and for that matter, many other designs can be used to gather and separate the fullness... 😊I will add it to our list of videos to make! Thanks for the excellent question!💗
Kay Marl 🤓Yes ma’am! Depending on what brand your Quilty System is... 💗Your local HandiQuilter retailer should be able to order a Glide Foot for you, or have them on hand, or be able to ship one to you if you don’t live close enough to wander through and drool over all the possibilities of Options they have available ( 😎I love to look at all the cool tools!) ☢️Be sure to use a small washer and insert the screw from the back hole instead of the front slot, to avoid spreading and cracking the neck. 🌴If you don’t have a local retailer, my friend MK in Florida offers, for an additional cost, an etched glide foot with 1/4” and 1/2” circle and northsoutheastwest markings etched into the clear plastic... 😊Other brands have similar “scoop” or “spoon” or “cupped” feet ... some are clear, some are metal... (metal won’t crack and break, but can’t see through it)... some have wider needle hole for improved vision... Google and Amazon are handy but not as helpful as a local or live person who really knows this stuff. ✅The clear plastic collects lots of lint fuzzies, so that can decrease vision... keep it clean, and always clean away the lint by the Bobbin case at same time (I find the glide foot a great reminder to clean the Bobbin)... 🤓Note: the curve of the foot creates a distorted view... much like wearing someone else’s glasses... or your own new bifocals for the first time... there is a learning curve to position it properly... especially by the back bar... 😎I switch feet often, to always use my favorite cool tool for the task at hand. My other favorite foot is the TALL WALL ruler foot “Sure Foot”.🤓
I think I have a shop not too far away which I will check to see if they have them. Can you show me your 'tall foot' ? Can you also explain the reason why you would use those feet? Ie what do they help wth?
Kay Marl 🤔I don’t think I can add a photo here. The Sure Foot has much taller round sides on the hopping foot... (twice as tall as regular) ... so it doesn’t hop over the ruler, nor slide under the ruler... it’s much easier to hold the ruler next to the “Sure Foot” (Tall Wall Ruler Foot) as you stitch. 🤓Plus it has taller clearance before the bend in the shank, so it doesn’t bump into that bend! 🎉and ...it has a nice regular size hole to see where you are stitching... some of the specialty feet have smaller holes for the needle. 🌸
Thx for the recommendation. WEll done!
love your sunglasses too
🌸Thanks! 🥰Lol😎 they are my favorite headband!!!🥰
I, for one, am amazed.

Would love to see the finished quilt and how the piano keys work with the rest of the design
Cathy Cerda 🌸head on over to SederQuilts Facebook page for photos of the finish 😎
Do you remove those stitches after you place your edge to edge design?
🌸Excellent question! Usually I leave these “Piano Keys” stitches in place, as a border, to keep the fullness under control and pretty... and run the edge to edge design as a smaller, inner body size.

Can you tell me where I can get one of the transparent foot you are using.
Kay Marl 🤓Yes ma’am! Depending on what brand your Quilty System is...
💗Your local HandiQuilter retailer should be able to order a Glide Foot for you, or have them on hand, or be able to ship one to you if you don’t live close enough to wander through and drool over all the possibilities of Options they have available ( 😎I love to look at all the cool tools!)
☢️Be sure to use a small washer and insert the screw from the back hole instead of the front slot, to avoid spreading and cracking the neck.
🌴If you don’t have a local retailer, my friend MK in Florida offers, for an additional cost, an etched glide foot with 1/4” and 1/2” circle and northsoutheastwest markings etched into the clear plastic...
😊Other brands have similar “scoop” or “spoon” or “cupped” feet ... some are clear, some are metal... (metal won’t crack and break, but can’t see through it)... some have wider needle hole for improved vision...
