I have been quilting for several years now and hate drawing lines. This works great! It also helps keep your 1/4" seam al the way through to the very end.

@IMOO1896 4 года назад

I’ve done 45° line stitching for a long time. All you need to do is draw a straight line on a sticky pad and put just before where needle goes in. Keep the sewing line eyed on the drawn line, works wonderfully. Simple, without expense of a special ruler.

This will now become part of the beginner sewing kit that I use for teaching. Thank you so much.

@francesjackson2511 5 лет назад

I just found this tutorial. Thank you for making it so clear and easy to understand. I have been sewing for many years, and now I wonder where this tool has been all my life. As soon as your lovely demonstration was finished I ordered one. Looking forward to putting it to lots of good use. I always enjoy your tutorials. You're an excellent teacher with very useful ideas, and you're so pleasant to listen to as well!

I've got to get this one I had one that was a cling type, followed their directions exactly and it tore the second time I used it and ended up an expensive piece of trash. I love that this one is much thicker and actually temporarily adheres to the sewing machine table and is removable too. Thanks, Laura--you are the BEST at keeping us informed about the latest nifty notions.

@gwenlehman5911 2 года назад

Laura, your instructions are very easy to follow. Thank you!

@reneejohnson4058 4 года назад

I have the Angler 2. Similar to this. Absolutely love it! It Not only makes a perfectly straight line and perfect half square triangles, it saves so much time. It stays on my machine for nearly all of my piecing. Needed this years ago. ☺️

@emilysanchez1165 3 года назад

Thanks a lot for your demonstration, I already ordered mine, I so excited to get it.

@denisepineda1788 6 лет назад

I have a similar product that is made of the cling type plastic. Best thing ever. I never have to draw lines and I can make sure I'm sewing a straight 1/4 inch seam or corner to corner, etc. saves so much time!

@lb2577 4 года назад

Can you tell me the name/maker of the cling type that you use please. Thanks

@annwilliams2075 2 года назад

I was given a similar seam guide tool for Christmas but the instructions are very poor. Put in a search on RU-vid and your video popped up . You have made the instructions soooooo much easier to understand and now I know how to use my guide properly. 👏👏👏😊😊😊

@texasquilter3854 4 года назад

I have this, only drawback is it covers the bobbin. It is handy and a good guide. Now I have a machine with a laser light guide, absolutely love it! I very much enjoy your tutorials, so informative, thanks.

@SewVeryEasy 4 года назад

Yes that's definitely a a disadvantage it's always good to start with your bobbin full 😆

@marcellespeake4272 6 лет назад

I have this and love it! Great for making 1/4 in seams or sew on a line or sewing quarter square triangles without marking. I ordered directly from Quilt in a Day. Awesome product.

@gramsusa4065 4 года назад

Just ordered! Since losing sight in eye been struggling to keep sewing. Thank you. Love watching you and your videos.

@tauntmary982 2 года назад

@monalong8209 3 года назад

@GloBugQuilter 6 лет назад

Thank you for a clear and help tutorial on this notion which I've had but had never used. I'll be sewing up 5" square pairs into HST's and then turning those into QST's and your tutorial gave me instant relief at not having to sit and draw all those diagonal lines.

@tracystoutbehunin9303 5 лет назад

Love your videos. Do you have a very clear our way of demonstrating everything. I love this little gadget as well. Thank you!

@marthagriffin7149 6 лет назад

I have this tool and it works remarkably well. Saves a lot of time and makes the seams really accurate. Thanks for the video.

@4everwishing 6 лет назад

Ingenious!! I can see this as a great tool for sewing the X's on the blocks on a rag quilt!

@sharirogers 5 лет назад

Straight seams have been a consistent problem with me, and I think this will help a lot. Thanks!

@AdiarraS 6 лет назад

I LOVE this notion! I had the version of this that was a vinyl cling, but it got beat up and stretched too easily, and fabric stuck to it. This is fantastic. Great notion share!

@judyhbaker 6 лет назад

I just bought one and haven't used it yet. So happy to see your demonstration!

@Snapwhiz 6 лет назад

Great video! I like the very thorough way you explained how to use this tool. I think I need one. It will help save a ton of time marking half square triangles and helping keep my snowball corner seams square. Thank you!

@karenreilly9425 5 лет назад

I did a jelly roll quilt without one of these and it was pure heck when the edges wouldn't match up I did a lot of trimming. I tried the painters tape trick and that didn't work as well as this does. This tool would have made it so much easier thank you so much for doing this video.

@manuelashannon1369 Год назад

I bought that and I glad you showed how to install it. Now I’m going to take out of my drawer and use it.

@izabeau1953 6 лет назад

What a nice thing to have to sow straight, I have never seen that. Tks for showing us. 🌹❤️🌹❤️

@gailani1950 4 года назад

I've been using the cling-on one and it doesn't stick anymore after removing it several times. This looks so much easier to use and no cutting out the center like I had to do with the cling-on one. Thanks fir the great demonstration!

@sharonc1282 6 лет назад

Hi, Laura, I am so glad you demonstrated this tool. I have thought about getting it, but am hesitant without seeing it actually 'in use'. What I hope to see on your next demo is just how easy (or NOT easy) it is to follow that line with the corner of your piece. Your skill is much greater than myself, so, if your seam is wobbly, then my seam will be crazy! Know what I mean? I look forward to seeing the next demo.... And, thank you so much for sharing your skills and expertise! 😊

@RosieCarl 6 лет назад

Thanks for explaining this. I have seen these before, but I had not seen an explanation of how to use it. I see (I think) that you are using a clear extension table. If you don't have an extension table or a machine that is recessed into your sewing table, I think this might not work very well. Looks like a great tool.

@Sharon-pb7so 6 лет назад

Great demo of this tool. I've seen Eleanor Burns use it many times but she's never shown how to use it is such detail.

@bevann8624 6 лет назад

I have The Angler which is the same concept. It worked really well until my bobbin ran out. :) Unfortunately, I have to lift up or remove it to change the bobbin; it is a bit of a hassle. I really enjoy you informative videos.

@kaybaertlein541 3 года назад

I wonder how well this works with sewing machines that have drop-in bobbins, From the looks of the tutorial it looks as though it would block your view of your bobbin making it difficult to know when you are about to run out of bobbin thread. Other than that it looks like a great idea.

@pattylemnah7935 5 лет назад

Laura. Please write books. You are the best sewing teacher I have found. Your book could help beginners and sewers who need to refresh their skills. Where do you give workshops? You are the Tim Gunn of at home Project Runway. You really make it work

@claudiaforrest6669 3 года назад

@tinafreethy9571 6 лет назад

I agree with the others. We need to see a "sewing demonstration". I would NOT buy one without it!

@SewVeryEasy 6 лет назад

Sorry about that I did leave the marks on so that you could imagine where the needle was going. I felt that if I put the foot on and did sew you would not be able to see it as well. The needle would stitch on that line. You are not looking a the needle as you guide the fabric through, you are following the bottom point of the fabric to the line. I will keep that in mind for next time. Thanks

@lynnleipold2617 4 года назад

I loved your video. I just received one in my October subscription box. I had been looking at this for at least a year, but I had bought something from Nancy’s Notions that helped me mark the diagonal lines. It works just great, but with the Sew Straight I won’t even have to mark the lines. I have a Bernina 790 plus. It looked to me as though you have a clear acrylic platform around your machine. I just have the sewing table that came with the machine. Will it work with that, or do I need another accessory?

@mgs783 6 лет назад

It would have been visually insightful to me if you demonstrated sewing with fabric not marked. I know that I am use to seeing the line as it relates to the foot so I am feeling with no line it’s like blind trusting that the fabric will sew that straight line, almost feels counterintuitive as to where to look! This was a new tool to me, interesting yet my brain struggles with it a bit! Lol

@janetwest8254 6 лет назад

Good Video , looks like great tool. However for us beginners, it would be nice if you actually sewed in the demo. Thanks for sharing. Some of us are very visual learners.

@candis.395 6 лет назад

janet west Agreed!

@helenbell1715 6 лет назад

She does everything but run it threw the machine. Watching the needle going up and down won’t make it any easier

@janetwest8254 6 лет назад

Helen, Thanks for your comments. Maybe for you it is just watching the needle go up and down. Because you may be an expert. Some of us are just beginning, and need to see the needle go up and down. So maybe the next time you comment, you may wish to consider not everyone is as smart as you.

@janetwest8254 6 лет назад

Thank you Candi.

@ajames4262 6 лет назад

janet west I totally agree with you Janet West! It would have been so much more a learning process if she could show the actual sewing.

@lindapucillo3493 6 лет назад

Thank you so much for making this video. I recently bought this item, and was not sure how to use it. I hope you can answer a question I have about the use. I do not have a flat sewing surface or an extension table that I can use. Will this still work on a regular sized sewing bed? Not sure I’ve made this clear, but hope you can give me some advice. Again, thanks for the videos. Your teaching is always very clear and concise.

@SewVeryEasy 6 лет назад

Yes, you can still use it. It is very bendable so you can bend it for your bed. You might need to trim it down As long as you can get to your bobbin it is fine. It will also protect your bed:) hope this helps

I have an ‘Angler’ is this basically the same thing? It was given to me with a bunch of lovely fabric from my sister in law when she passed away. I haven’t used the Angler yet and I don’t know why because I sure could use all the help I can get. I may order the ‘Sew Straight’ as it look like it may be better?

@paulahardesty4449 5 лет назад

YOU ARE wonderful. You teach us every single little thing. THANK YOU. Where did you get your clear table that goes around. your machine?

@SewVeryEasy 5 лет назад

It is a machine extension table. You can get theses for most machines. You might need to order it from your local shop

@janiceball5860 5 лет назад

How can I buy this amazing straight line plastic please thank you for sharing

@catherinegoaack1629 5 лет назад

The whole point of not having the fabric go through the machine was so you can watch where the point as it is going and guiding with the lines on the template, you’re not supposed to really watch the needle

@amp53810 Год назад

What if your fabric is like so big and still want to sew straight without marking? Any tips?

you might need to cut it to fit your machine bed

@elaineshannon9952 6 лет назад

Do you then sew through the tool?

@SewVeryEasy 6 лет назад

No, it stays on the machine bed. You just use it as a guide :)

@mek6315 6 лет назад

Your machine sits almost flat with your table and it looks like it works good but my machine sits taller. Is there a version that would work for it?

@patriciabaldwin9048 6 лет назад

@SewVeryEasy 6 лет назад

You could just have it sit on the extension part and line it up with the needle. Your machine might already have markings on the machine itself that you could line up. Hope that helps :)

@suzannechristensen7793 Год назад

This is one of those gimmick tools that end up in a drawer because it's not needed. It typically will be purchased by new quilters who don't know better, and then abandoned because it's more bother than it's worth.

@JOHANNA-qd6iz 6 лет назад

Just one more tool I would not use all the time. I have never see you use this tool in any of your tutoriels.

@SewVeryEasy 6 лет назад

It is a tool that you do not need for each project, only those diagonal lines. I do not have the marks on my machine so I do use it for all my HST and my snowball blocks. For the binding strips, I use the same method, I just eyeball it. As a general rule, I do mention in the videos to draw the line as not everyone has this tool. You do not see it as I take it off my machine while filming so that everyone would not be confused. Thanks for watching

@SewVeryEasy 6 лет назад

I just thought of a video where you can see it on my machine:) my room tour check out 3:07 and 4:47 :) I did cut mine out a little different. It sits around my footplate and covers the small differences were the two beds met :) hope that helps:) thanks for asking
