During the workshop, Jacquie said that they were vibrating. I went home and looked it up and I think she's right. Now that I know what it is, I keep trying to do it again. :-)Jill Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17777324112388122299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117874423611375090.post-22851493347486892092015-11-05T12:13:57.568-06:002015-11-05T12:13:57.568-06:00I keep coming back to this quilt.

I stitch registration lines about the width of the presser foot.across the width of the quilt, then go back and subdivide and then subdivide again. Some are able to get their lines perfectly straight. I don't try that hard to make it perfect because I like the slightly curvy, organic line and also I know that my personality just isn't cut out for perfection. Try it on something small...I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Matchstick quilting really brings the piecing into focus!Jill Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17777324112388122299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117874423611375090.post-64255569761112695162015-10-24T22:29:36.590-05:002015-10-24T22:29:36.590-05:00Thank you, Leanne!
