In the beginning of my quilting journey, rulers made me feel like I could quilt and gave me the confidence to free motion. I still live using rulers too.

Hello from Homeworth, Ohio

@lilolgreyhairdlady4093 Год назад

Great video for understanding tension! Thanks for all the examples - tension too loose, too tight... what the bobbin tension test looks like, even exactly where to put that drop of oil!!! - my machine thanks you (it's humming sooo much better)!

@judithanne7092 Год назад

I think that using same colour thread top and bottom hides minor tension issues, but it does not make better tension. I use pretty much only cream or light grey bobbin thread no matter what colour the top. Yes, that means I have to be more careful to ensure correct tension. But it makes for much prettier backs.

@carolynstegall7000 Год назад

I don’t match the threads either… works for me

Hello, Could u help me please? My sit down machine is stuck and will not sew. It beeps when I try. Any help will be much appreciated Thanks in advance.

It is best to reach out to your local retailer or to call in to Handi Quilter technical support.

When you're checking tension on a quilt load on the frame, how do you see underneath? For me when it's loaded, it's pretty secure and i find myself crawling on the floor with a flashlight. 2 problems with that is I have a small space and I'm 65 and getting back up is a challenge! 😮😮

@HandiQuilter 6 месяцев назад

Some people use their phone to take pictures of the bottom or others use a mirror. You can also try tightening your tension so that the bobbin appears on the top and then reducing the tension until it settles into the quilt sandwich.

@Hearnmeister1 6 месяцев назад

@HandiQuilter so generally the top tension is ok? I know that's what you see on the bottom.

@shelbyroggenbuck1075 Год назад

Why do you use the same color of thread top and bottom?

@judithanne7092 Год назад

It hides minor tension issues. It doesn't actually affect tension, imho

@HandiQuilter Год назад

Even with great tension, there are times where the bobbin will show on the top or vice versa. Having the same color top and bottom will hide those spots!

I would rather that she explained what she was doing, rather than sub-titles. Cut the music!

@judithanne7092 Год назад

I really wish video makers would dump the annoying, repetitive canned music. It is so distracting and doesn't add anything.

@donnacox4081 Год назад

I agree

@susanferguson5136 Год назад

It is just too Loud.

@hrothgarnogar Год назад

What you rather have? Silence? There's large parts where there's no voice over or talking. You need something there lol. It's not even that loud. I was able to hear the presenter clearly.

@judithanne7092 Год назад

@@hrothgarnogar silence wound be just fine. When there is no voice over or talking, there is usually machine running. What's wrong with that?
