#MEANDER QUILTING WITH A LOOP HOW TO#
In this video we will look at how to create these essential designs that you’ll use for dozens of other designs down the road. Now, how about sketching some of these loop designs, and designing some of your own 1. Next time, Id like to try the pretty motif you used on your coaster (front left). On my last quilt, I did a did a sort of loop, but with 3 loopy bits, sort of like 3 petals on a flower. Understanding the difference between a hook and a curl will help you learn other designs down the road. Ive been trying to expand beyond the meander. In the next video we will explore the basic lower case cursive letter “e” and “l” to show how you have been training your brain since fourth grade for this quilting design! Of course, in addition to all over designs you’ll want to have a few border and sashing motifs that you can use initially. In this video we will walk you through a basic loopy all over design that you can use on lots of fun quilts. The best way to learn how to do that is to make lots and lots of loops. One of the first goals you’ll have when using your longarm is to get used to how to use the momentum of the machine to carry you around curves.
In this video we double up that line and cross over it in order to easily create a more complicated look that is incredibly simple to achieve. You may be familiar with this pattern if you’ve worked with free motion quilting on your sit down domestic machine. Most folks start with a very basic meander line. Thankfully we have created some great videos that will walk you through the best designs so you can grow your skills quickly and easily. Make several stitches in the same place to secure your. You should have both threads (top and bobbin) out. Grab your bobbin thread and pull it though the top of your quilt. Pull top thread until bobbin thread makes a little loop. There are some designs that are perfect for beginners to get their sea legs and become accustomed to longarm machine quilting. step 1 In the right hand top corner of your quilt, presser foot down, drop your needle and raise it back up. Oh, and instead of paper you are doodling on fabric.
Using a longarm feels a lot like doodling with a big pencil only you are using thread and not lead. It takes your breath away! Once that beautiful machine gets out of the box and onto your quilting frame, you might start to feel a little intimidated. If the line I quilted added to the “wonkiness” it was quilted, if not quilting worked then it was not quilted.There is nothing quite like that moment when you open the box to your new APQS longarm machine.
I used three thread colors in Cover Girl orange, pink and green. I started describing some of what I was looking for, mainly quilting that could be done with a walking foot, and they started throwing back ideas at me. Everything on Cover Girl came out of a conversation with me and two friends. In my opinion, the best way to figure out what I desire is to start chatting it up with friends. (and this is me talking, other quilters will have their quilts finished by long-armers and enter them into shows and that is okay, just not my style.) I took a good look at her and decided I want to enter her into Quilt Shows.
I hadn’t put much thought or research into what the design would be, but I was sure about having Penny quilt them. Initially these quilts were going to be sent off to Alloway Quilting and have an edge to edge quilting motif. Cover Girl, which has the green background, and Sew Good, which has the pink background. So, let’s have a frank discussion about the Intentionally Wonky quilts I just made. That’s the part of the pattern where I get stuck.
