Checking the version is the same on the B 710 & B 750 so I'm showing it all on the B 710 today.… Continue reading BERNINA 710 & 750 version check

BERNINA 7 Series Quilters Hints B 780
I have this gorgeous machine. Shhh don't tell anyone I said this but "Grand Slam BERNINA! Grand Slam!!"The 7 Series just knocks my socks off. Okay okay I admit it I have the B 780. Sweet! Again we quilters are rather finicky. We like what we like and frequently we know what we like. BERNINA… Continue reading BERNINA 7 Series Quilters Hints B 780

BERNINA 7 Series Quilters hint
*NOTE* I sat down at the B 710 today. The securing stitch at the beginning is still there even after I showed you the following. This disables the pattern at the end! Which as quilters is so important. There is a firmware update in the works that the amazing techs at BERNINA are working… Continue reading BERNINA 7 Series Quilters hint

Binding by machine with the Dual Feed feature
I much prefer attaching bindings by machine for many of my quilts. Competition quilts I do by hand (however if I thought I could do it by machine all bets would be off.) I started binding by machine when making quilted tote bags, trying to finish by hand through the quilted suede would have just… Continue reading Binding by machine with the Dual Feed feature

Go Mini part 2
I woke up this morning with a brilliant blog post on my mind. Do you think I can remember what I was writing in my sleep? Only snippets based on my whole theory of quilt making, "Your Quilt, Your Rules" and conversations I've had with quilters in the last few weeks. When I talk to … Continue reading Go Mini part 2

A wee bit of Aurifil and Finding your way around
Several months ago Donna from Follow That Thread sent me a spool of Aurifil Lino (linen). Donna has a bit of a sense of humor and drew a smilie face on the wooden spool. That wooden spool will be a keepsake forever. All it needs is a little red pompon and voila! a clown like… Continue reading A wee bit of Aurifil and Finding your way around

The sound of silence

I'm quilting Quantum Leap (pieced by Jeanie Sumrall-Ajero) There will be lots and lots of bubbles - I can tell you the stitch… Continue reading The sound of silence

“You’re a quilting nerd” she said
Quilters as mentioned here I found the screen to see the stitch count on my machine! I've often wondered, and there is no way to tell, how many stitches there are on my 1080's. With the quilts stitched from piecing to binding over the years and all those tiny bubbles from @play I'm sure the… Continue reading “You’re a quilting nerd” she said
