Thanks for the demo! Just wondering what machine you are using. It looks like you have a large work area to the right of the needle. I am currently looking for something larger than what I have been working on which is a 50 year old Singer.

@ncredbird That is a Bernina with an average space.. about 9". There are newer machines with up to 12" now that do sewing. Visit your local sewing machine shop and take a look.. the new machines make your life so much easier and more fun to sew!

@PatSloan1

What model Bernina? I have looked at the new 800 series and although it is a knockout it is WAY beyond my pocket book.

[PatSloan1]

@ncredbird so sorry this took so long! I am using a Bernina.. any of the newer models are fabulous! Go do some test runs... time to upgrade!

Cute pattern. PLEASE, use better lighting on your video. It will help the camera stay in better focus. I could barely see what was being filmed. I checked it on multiple computer/ monitors... all were dark. I love your tip section.

Don't worry! Eggs are valid too.. Just have fun!

Thanks Pat! but you make this look sooo easy. I'm going to try it but my circles will probably look like eggs1

[dalmatin21]

Exactly I need. Thank you very much :-)

Hi Vee!!

If you don't pull the threads up then about 75 percent of the time the bobbin thread will ball up and cause a big rats nest on the back! Not a nice thing to take out.. and it's so quick to just pull the threads to the top and hold so they are tight

hope that helped!

[VeeVeeVeeV]

hi everyone instructs to pull the thread up from the bottom...why is that??

thanks for the excellent close up...

[PatSloan1]

Your welcome!!!

I thought that was very helpful, I did circles and it was amazing. I couldn't believe I had did it. Next I went back to straight lines, I did a poor job, lots of wrinkles on a king size quilt. I will try bubbles next time. Thank you Pat.
