What to do about pokies!
LinneaMarie replied to Janice H's topic in Gone Quilting...Chat About Anything
I finally did finish it. And Shana is right; it was the backing because it was homespun loose woven stuff. But I changed to Quilters Dream BLACK poly so all went great after that. On a side note, I used it on a set of placemats and the backing was RJR Thimbleberries from a long time ago. I had the same problem! -

What to do about pokies!
LinneaMarie replied to Janice H's topic in Gone Quilting...Chat About Anything
I've got POKIES!! I hate pokies. I thought it was me, but this is the second quilt with them. The first was for me; just placemat. This one is a customer and it's homespun front and BACK! I'm using Hobbs 80/20. It used to be wonderful; not so much anymore!! So i'm thinking of taking out two rows and using Quilters Dream Blend. Shoulda known!! -

Renaissance Wax Polish
LinneaMarie replied to Lynn1234's topic in Gone Quilting...Chat About Anything
I thought we weren't supposed to wax?? Just wipe with a soft cloth. I think that is what Dawn said. I have a 2009 Millie and once in a great while I'll clean with some rubbing alcohol; the other kind I drink! hahaha -

I had the same problem. Was sewing beautifully; turned off for the night, next day LOOPS ON BOTTOM from top thread. I put a new needle in, checked thread path, checked timing. Nothing!! Then I tried a different bobbin case. Problem FIXED! I threw the other one out. I don't know what happened to make it go bad. Hangin with the wrong crowd maybe! hahahahaha

Why I love my APQS machine

Hi NanaFuller, Superior Threads has a guide on their website that cross references colors from one thread line to another. Say from King Tut to So Fine; or Bottom Line to So Fine. Check it out here http://www.superiorthreads.com/reference-guides/ Hope this helps, -

Ok, I have not been on the Forum for a long time. I'mmmmmmmmm baaaack! hahahaha Having a problem with my needle jumping down all alone; no one by the machine. I have a 2009 Millie. The needle just bangs down real loud and comes part way back up. Is it loose wires? I've checked all connections and everything looks and feels fine. It's scary it might happen while I'm trying to change the needle or put a new bobbin in. Anyone have any ideas?? Thanks?

Loading a Quilt with Double Batting
LinneaMarie replied to jimerickson's topic in Gone Quilting...Chat About Anything
I've been working on one for about 3 years that has Hobbs 80/20 on bottom and Quilters Dream wool on top. It quilts beautifully. Good thing I have zippers; because everytime I get a customer quilt I can zip it off and then zip it back on. Can you tell I have not had ANY time to work on it?? hahahahaha -
Also, I use packing tape to pull out the cut threads! I'm going to try the spatula or erasers if I have to do it again. Hopefully not an entire quilt! One row is bad enough!!

I had to skin a whole quilt once. Thankfully, not a big one. I had the backing on completely upside down! Didn't realize it until I was finished! It was and A-B-C pattern. Took it off the frame after I skinned it; which took a day or more, then sprayed it with water and light starch; ironed it to within in an inch of it's life and you could not find the holes! Yippee! I used a scalpel from Famore. Make sure you have extra blades because they go dull pretty fast. And if you have to push too hard; well, the slice won't be pretty! I originally took it off the frame, but soon learned it was ea
