Title: I never knew quilting was so complicated
Post by: Grebo on April 26, 2012, 02:36:35 am
I come across this video while researching rotary cutters.
Boy can you get some toys tools for quilting  ???
If you can bear it long enough, don't know how I did   ::) you will probably here me screaming, GET ON WITH IT!
The clippy thing she use's for holding the material, well so happens I had a couple given to me years ago, which I have never had a use for, they actually work pretty good with canvas.

Thanks for the video. I don't quilt but I love looking at unique toys tools.

I wonder if Gregg has these for my Juki LU 562?

You can imagine how much time these would save, and do a better job, if you did a lot of quilting borders.

A really neat place to find unique specialty tools is in piano building and piano repairing.

I'm sure those quilting tools get pricey, too.  Funny how she never demonstrated actually sewing with her nifty product ;)

My quilting experience has been limited to channel and diamond quilting.  I may have to look into the clippy things.  Would it make binding any easier?  Or could I use them instead of pining everything together?

The video reminds me how much I hate the shopping channels.  Ha ha!
