It's tough for me to keep the snowflake quilt lines smooth.<BR/>Thanks for the tip.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15723470.post-1164725445208117352006-11-28T09:50:00.000-05:002006-11-28T09:50:00.000-05:00This is a great idea - I'll have to play around wi...This is a great idea - I'll have to play around with it.

I'll have to try Libby Lehman's trick. It would be nice to quilt over drawn lines on complex quilt patterns. Right now, I just use it to figure out my patterns and/or a visual reference at my sewing machine while I'm quilting.Nellie's Needleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12468773469685787840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15723470.post-1164652631553895432006-11-27T13:37:00.000-05:002006-11-27T13:37:00.000-05:00I took a class from Libby Lehman last winter and s...I took a class from Libby Lehman last winter and she said you can actually quilt through the press'n seal, then pull it off. Any residue can be removed by covering it with cheap paper towel (she specified cheap because it lets more heat through), and touching it with a hot iron. The remaining press'n seal sticks to the towel and comes off. (Maybe there is a press cloth on top of towel? Can't remember.) It wasn't clear to me if you did that, or just used it for a sketch. Anyway, just passing the idea on. I like your idea, and will remember it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
