Introducing Straight Line Quilting!!
Yes, that’s right! Straight line quilting has finally made it’s way into the TCQ studio! Simple, clean, and modern, the offering of straight line quilting brings us closer to that beautiful contemporary feel we often look for in our quilting options.
BUT! I had a fantastic tech from my longarm company, Gammill, come by and help me fine tune one of my machines and we are now able to let the machine happily move back and forth across the full span of the quilt in beautiful straight lines!
There are a couple of caveats:
90” is the longest I can run the lines. We were only able to fine tune my smaller machine which maxes out at just over 90”.
We will run lines 1” apart and wider at our usual rate of $.0225/sq in. Lines run more densely than 1” will be $.025/sq in, and .25” or smaller will be $.03/sq in.
Thank you to everyone who was patient, who pushed for me to get it worked out, and for those of you who let me experiment on their quilts. Together, we made this happen!
(Special thanks to Natalie Hollabaugh, maker of the gorgeous Summer Haze Quilt (Pattern by Suzy Quilts) pictured above. We used lines .75” apart.)
