kbaumbusch Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 Hi, I know IQ will allow you to do no-sew zones around appliqués and embroidery, but I've got a lady's quilt that has blocks with turtles having flaps for the heads and tails. Does this sound like something that should even be attempted with IQ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeke Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 Sure. Just pin them back so the IQ does quilt over them. Do you have space for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kari Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 Since you don't need to hold the machine, you can hold the pieces out of the way while IQ stitches. When I have small items (such as a flange), I will actually tape it down with scotch tape to keep it from flipping when stitching over it. The tape is easily removable with no residue. Here is my blog post on my flange technique. http://www.onpointquilter.com/blog/quilting-a-flange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbaumbusch Posted November 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 Thanks for the info and advice. I decided to quilt around the heads and tails, this will be my first try doing individual blocks. Thanks again! Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iquiltit Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 I used the sticky saran wrap on a quilt that had a lot of flanges. Just rub it off when u r through. It worked very well Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
