@thimblebin.bsky.socialAw thank you so much! Ok yes my stitch length is too small, my settings are off. I’ll use a 70/10. And I’m going to review this video especially on ironing lol. Thank you so much for all your advice. ❤️
Show PostThank you this is excellent. I’ve never successfully worked with batik before, either. You can’t mix Kona with batik, the fabrics won’t iron together correctly. I found that out. Then my batik/batik ironed funky, too. Anyway, I’ll take a break, review these videos and get back at it tomorrow.
Show PostIt definitely looked not so great after the wash but it doesn’t look too bad now. Luckily it was some fabric I bought just for practice, and not something I care about. It was good to learn that lesson now though before the fabric I care more about comes this weekend.
Show PostJust tried a second time making my brother a quilt and points didn’t line up. Again. Threw it out. Back to cutting.. so disappointing.
Show PostBasic tutorial on sewing: You absolutely should pre-wash your fabric Later tutorial on pre-washing: You may want to sew a seam on the edge to protect it Me: that would have be nice to know before I pre-washed 🙃
