How do you Quilt with a Longarm Machine?       


Creative Quilting is designed to work with, and complement, the patchwork. 

Quilting plans within this category may include 

  • edge to edge work positioned over the body of the quilt with a separate design stitched around the border.

     

  • medium size stipple meander of various styles, 

     

  • small quantities of ditch stitching, 

     

  • open grid work, 

     

  • some inset motifs etc

"Hidden Stars" Quilt made by Nancy Mann of Glen Waverley, Vic. Look for the additional hidden stars that have been included in the meander quilting. 

Blue & White Quilt made by Lynn Mauger of Croydon Hills, Vic. The placement of the diagonal lines was dictated by the patchwork design and results in a secondary pattern appearing in the quilting

Using thread colours to complement the quilt.

When stitching Creative & Heirloom style designs it is possible to change thread colours to blend, or highlight, different features of the quilt. However a thread change fee does apply when more than one colour of thread is used in a quilt.

Speciality threads such as variegated, heavier weights and metallic thread are all available when quilting in the Creative & Heirloom style.

The use of metallic, & some heavier weight threads is not recommended on bed quilts that may require regular laundering.

100% Cotton thread is used for all quilting, unless otherwise specified, and a small surcharge applies. Read about the threads and see the extensive colour range of  Cotton Mako' threads.

Satin finished Aurilux polyester threads are also available for use on art quilts, wall hangings and tops where you want a touch of "jazz".
