I realize it’s been a while since you made these videos, but I would like to thank you. I have watched (and continue to do so) them multiple times. A few things I knew but nobody taught me how to quilt so I have had to learn many things the hard way 😍

What a treasure Esther Miller is. Beautiful lady and beautiful hand quilting🌟

@millersquilting Год назад

Thank you. I agree she really was.

I no longer use knots in any of my sewing, I was so happy when I learned how to do it without knots.

Such elegant stitching. Thank you for sharing your expertise.

I would love to see a video showing how close to quilt to the edge so when you square your quilt the stitches do not get cut off.

Thank you so much for these videos. I am surprised at how many things I figured out on my own (because nobody in my area was hand-quilting or had ever done so), but I have learned several new techniques in these videos and will be applying them. I am also sharing them with a friend in France who hand-quilts! I enjoy hand-quilting because of the meditative quality. I own 2 quilting frames and I am currently working on a quilt that will be a wedding gift for my husband's niece (and yes, she is quilt-worthy).

That is wonderful.

I only just found you! You are a blessing! Thank you so much for your videos! It is explained so well! I am new to quilting, and I want to learn it traditionally. And then I found out, you got a shop in Germany! :) Greetings from Switzerland

@marthaahrens5287 Год назад

Thank you so much for making these videos! I haven't found anyone else who teaches small stitches like this and it is exactly what I needed to know. Your instruction is so clear, I feel like I know what to do now. I'm so looking forward to making my first quilt! ❤

You can always come back to check your form and then practice practice practice.

Thank you for your lessons on traveling and beginning and ending without knots. I needed those lessons.

You are very welcome

Thank you! Not pulling the thread through first when stab stitching...great tip!

Hello Esther from France. I started hand quilting on my lap last year. Since making & using a frame I struggled until I watched your videos. You are a fabulous teacher. My progress is slow but you have most certainly sent me in the right direction - I’ll be ordering the thumb (Ted’s) thimble to help with my second direction. Bless you & thanks

I'm glad you found Esther's videos to help you. She would have loved that. If you want to take a class some time, Alexia rosfelder from bluestar quilting is a student of Esther's that teaches in France.

I’ve been quilting for 40 years as I I age pulling the needle through becomes more difficult. Watching you with the needle puller encouraged me to try this. It is fantastic I think I I can quilt into my 80’s for sure now thank you! I also tried quilting with the spoon to save my under side finger I quickly changed to using a tiny butter pat from my Limoges china dishes it doesn’t scratch my needles and works well whilst I save up for a needle slide.

Yes porcelain is far better. The needle will wear through the glase over time though.

@reneetoday3779 Год назад

Thank you so much! I have learned so much from your videos!

I am happy to hear that.

Thank you for sharing your expertise. You are truly a gifted artist and I have learned a lot from your videos! I have been quilting for over 20 years but always feel that I need to learn.

Is one layer of wool batting really warm enough? I live in northern Virginia, in the mountains. And our furnace went out 5 years ago. If it is 19°F or less outside, it will be 40°F inside. We do have space heaters but you can only get them too hot before overloading the electrical system. We should have a new one next winter.

@millersquilting 10 месяцев назад

The wool batting we have is really warm, any more than that and it gets almost impossible to quilt. When it's cold you might want to use layers. I remember I used to sleep under 3 quilts.
