I used my regular foot (dual feed) for the circles and hook and then just stippled around it.
Here I see that I need to go slower when I am in the other loop.
Some of you have seen this....I used my regular foot (actually my applique foot). Took a long time but was well worth it.
I tried fixing the tension but I think maybe I am going a little too fast in the loop....but you won't see me taking this out.
Here I just did some swirls....boy I love to swirl. This is the outer border (whohoooooo at the home stretch)
You all know I have a need for speed when it comes to quilting.
As you can see, there are places that I need to slow down. If I was driving a car I would be arrested but......
in my quest for speed I broke my hoping foot....the plastic loop at the bottom....twice I ran over that puppy when it came loose. I suppose the vibration from the machine loosened the screw. Pooey.
I know I have a darning foot somewhere....but where???? I have my "Big Foot" but it is too high up. So I am going to play with it to see if I can adjust it to where it will work.
Yes, this is the same quilt I ran out of fabric on....... I was for sure I would be at the binding stage today but as usual I underestimate my time and issues happen.
Maybe tonight I can work on it some more and maybe acquire a foot somewhere??? Going to be gone a good portion of the day so...all of you out there
have fun and don't try to make any records speeding!
I can't imagine how you do that with the dual feed foot. Maybe you should do a video!
ReplyDeleteYour quilting is beautiful. I love the first picture's look. So sorry about the hopping foot. That is a stop sign in your need for speed.
