I'm having "bunching issues" any ideas on what I'm doing wrong or tips to avoid bunching? I am using a Janome QC machine and my walking foot. Thanks for a great blog! I love looking at all your projects!jstutheithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11028473422877726061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-62107662393128657792013-04-12T07:41:39.372-05:002013-04-12T07:41:39.372-05:00Oh I feel like it's Christmas!

Starch, I want lots of scraps to make love scrap projects, I'm concerned about using starch before I cut fabrics and getting moths in my scrapsi, like you I don't pre wash! So do you starch or use best press after cutting only or is it a problem?

Will sit tight til you do that.<br />And I've been using similar fabric folding I just fold them around the ruler and in half, works especially well for yardage in excess of one yard. And the if it won't go around the ruler tip, GENIUS! <br />Enjoy!Glynishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00241569715071319195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-69039673589446253292013-04-11T10:34:23.406-05:002013-04-11T10:34:23.406-05:00Love the studio, Love the pillow, Love the washtub...Love the studio, Love the pillow, Love the washtub, Love the folding, Love the shelves, Love the artist!:)Di~https://www.blogger.com/profile/14361700150707522409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-89524294891837641592013-04-11T10:02:48.912-05:002013-04-11T10:02:48.912-05:00your scrappy pillow is awfully sweet and so very, ...your scrappy pillow is awfully sweet and so very, very Amanda.quirky granola girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14073631481423912400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-32431479929314784782013-04-11T09:31:52.390-05:002013-04-11T09:31:52.390-05:00I know exactly how you feel about your sewing spac...I know exactly how you feel about your sewing space. We will be moving to another state in 6 weeks. I have been so blessed with my sewing space in this house, and I know I am going to really miss it. Space in our new house (we are downsizing) will be much smaller. But we will figure out how to make the new house work for me:) Nancy: rangerer@sbcglobal.net Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13409074281597209238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-27554490572012060002013-04-11T09:05:26.924-05:002013-04-11T09:05:26.924-05:00Love your pillows:) Do you have a tutorial on you...Love your pillows:) Do you have a tutorial on your favorite way to make the envelope closure for them?

I too am interested in your sewing machine comparisons. I sew on the Janome 7700 and the Viking Mega Quilter which is heavy duty straight stitch only-similar I think to your other Janome.
