Other things you will need to complete the class project


Piecing

You will need basic sewing supplies and basic sewing/quilting skills to piece the quilt top.

Quilting

Circle Templates

You can use any circle templates you have as long as they are for longarm quilting. They need to be at least 1/4 inch thick and made (preferably) from translucent acrylic.

I am using the Longarm University Circle Templates to quilt the designs on the class project.

IMPORTANT NOTE - When working with templates you MUST have an extended base unit or "table" on your machine. This table MUST be securely attached to your quilting machine.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE TEMPLATES WITHOUT A TABLE OR BASE UNIT!!


Thread: Use what ever type of thread you and your machine are comfortable working with. I used a very dark contrasting thread (dark purple) to quilt the circle designs. I WANTED the quilting to show!

Other items you may want to have on hand to make your quilting easier

  • 6 x 24 inch quilting ruler to make straight registration lines, or any other straight edge ruler that fits the workspace of your machine
  • safety pins for pin basting. This will be discussed during the class.

Markers: We are going to make registration lines to mark the placement and boundaries of our quilting designs.

You will need a marker that you are comfortable using on a quilt top. I recommend the Mark B Gone, water soluble (blue) marker on light fabrics and a Chalk O Liner with Miracle Chalk powder in it for dark fabric. I also like using Crayola Fine Line Washable Markers.

Please note that the Crayola markers wash out with detergent and warm water. The Crayola Fine Line Washable markers can be found at nearly every office supply store and many other stores including most grocery stores. A package of 8 markers is usually less than $5.

I use the Crayola markers only on my own quilts, NEVER, EVER on a customer quilt!

If you would like to practice your quilting before stitching, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you get a piece of clear Plexiglas that will fit in the workspace of your quilting machine. (Plexiglas of this size should be about $10 or less.)

Before using the Plexiglas, take either masking or duct tape (which now comes in many different colors) and place it over the cut edges of your piece of the Plexiglas. The tape serves two purposes. 1) It protects the edges of the Plexiglas. Sometimes the edges can be a little sharp and could scratch you or tear the quilt. 2) The tape will also make a boundary or edge around the Plexiglas. This will prevent you from drawing off the edge of the Plexiglas.

You will then use markers - I recommend the Vis-a-Vis markers, available at all "big box" office supply stores, for marking on the Plexiglas. (Note: the Vis-a-Vis markers usually have 5 in a package and cost less than $10.) The marker is removed using a damp paper towel. See below left.

For marking on Plexiglas on top of dark fabric, I have found that the Expo Bright Markers work very well. See below right.

Both of these markers can be purchased in major office supply stores such as Staples, Office Depot, Office Max, etc. They can also be purchased online.

REMEMBER this is a LEARNING project! This project does not need to be perfect. World peace does not depend on perfect piecing or quilting!!

June Tailor Basting Spray

I like to put a "shot" of spray adhesive between the quilt top and the batting along the border edges of the quilt. This holds the border edges of the quilt in place and I
don't have to stitch down the raw edges of the sides of the quilt, eliminating the chance of pleats and puckers in the side borders.

When using templates on the longarm machine, they have a tendency to slip slightly creating an uneven stitching line. I found that by applying a small amount of Quilt Basting
Spray on the back (etched side) of the templates prevents this slippage.

Due to postal regulations, this product is shipped separately via Parcel Post (ground delivery). Allow extra time for delivery.

This product can be shipped to US addresses only.
