I am getting lots of practice in with the Hinterberg quilt frame. I've completed the quilting on a lap size quilt for my mother, a throw size quilt for one of my granddaughters, and a wall hanging that my mother pieced. the wall hanging was definitely a challenge. Three different quilt motifs -- stippling, a free-form half flower, and then my first attempt at doing feathers. I also had to do blanket stitches on my other machine for the appliques.
While the wall hanging is far from being perfect, overall I was satisfied with the finished product. Hey, its good practice. If I don't keep trying and learning, what's the point of having a quilting frame?

hi!! where can i buy those chanukah letters? thank you! alicia from uruguay
ReplyDeleteAlicia - they were part of the wall hanging kit. You might be able to find a font online and make your own.
DeleteI converted my Hint. Orig frame to fit my new 17 inch Bailey's. I am having problems advancing my quilt. Do you roll the back roller to advance it?
ReplyDeleteYes, you need to roll the quilt onto the back roller to advance it. There is a Hinterberg group on Yahoo Groups if that will help.
