Quilting guides - who knew?

This post about a quilting guide on a walking foot, led me on a bit of a google investigation about quilting guides, which then led me to my box of "what the hell are these sewing bits and bobs for??!!!" items, at which point I discovered that I have a quilting guide and the appropriate foot+ankle combo to actually USE the thing :D I gave it a whirl, and these were the result - I gave them to Amanda last night to take to Blue Hills next week, for the kidlings :)

Thank you Katherine (a fellow Canadian, and fellow lover of patchwork, linen and vintage :D) for the "tidbit" on your post that led me to a pretty exciting discovery!!

    That post of Katherine's helped us both. You went looking for and found a quilting guide you already had and I hopefully won't have to go buy a new walking foot for my Singer 15-91.

    You and Nancy and Amanda got so much done on FNSI. I love hearing about it each month. I think the fact that you get together in real life makes it that much more fun.
