Countless Cables Quilt Yardage Amounts

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

We will be using several of the Longarm University quilting templates to create the designs on the class project. The templates used in this class are -

The templates used in this quilt are the -

  • 3 inch Simple Cable  For information about this template Click Here
  • 12 inch Cable Wreath  For information about this template Click Here
  • 6 inch Cable Wreath   For information about this template Click Here
  • Cindy's Bigger Circles  For information about this template Click Here
  • Or any other circle templates that will make 3 inch, 2 inch, 1-1/2 inch and 1 inch diameter circles

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.

For my class project I WANTED the quilting to show! I used a very dark contrasting thread (black) to quilt the cornerstones and the sashings. I used a dark gray variegated thread to quilt the border cables and the cable wreaths in the blocks. I also used a light thread (silver gray) for the stitch near the ditch around the blocks and in other areas of the quilt.

This is YOUR quilt! Use as many colors of threads as you want on this quilt.

Other Items You Will Need

For the class project (any size) you will need -

  • 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 - a lot of them - 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!

To remove the Crayola Washable Marker you MUST wash your quilt with warm / hot water with detergent! Water along will NOT remove this marker!

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

These templates are used in the blocks of this quilt.

Simple Cable Template

The Simple Cable template makes the traditional Double Cable pattern that is used in the borders and in the sashings of the class project.

Placement of the cables is fairly simple using the "No Math, No Measure" method of border design placement - which is discussed and used in this class.

We will be using the 3 inch Simple Cable which is a two template set. Along with the cable design, the second template makes a "curved corner". Note: we will not be using the curved corner design in this class.

For best results with the 3 inch Simple Cable Template, I highly recommend using the 1-1/2 inch Grid Stencil. For information about the Grid Stencils Click Here

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.
