Using a Quilting Guide Bar with Claire Campion
The Makers Studio Series • Educational, G, 20-Jul-2022
A quilting bar is a handy addition to a walking foot. It allows you to sew wider lines in your quilting.
Claire reminds us to look at the guide bar as it follows the lines for accurate quilting.
An ideal tool to support crosshatching with the bonus of only having to draw the first line.
We have some tips on how to fit your walking foot. For those of you who are the proud owner of one of the larger machines that uses the Acu-feed foot, then this video will help you fit it.
You can follow Claire on Instagram with #colliderquilt and @madejustsew.
You can find out more about Claire in our The Makers Studio series, all for FREE.
