Live Chat with Angela Walters! Tips for Machine Quilting with Wavy Rulers

hey everybody welcome to this week's live chat i've just been watching all the questions come through on the youtube video chat function really enjoying that i've been kind of logging in 30 minutes early and kind of seeing what people are asking and just kind of a fun way to hang out this week we did wavy line rulers or wavy rulers and i hope that you enjoyed it i hope that you weren't cussing me too much because there's a little bit more to think about with those kinds of rulers more specifically the point of contact between the foot and the ruler so as it's changing you might have noticed that maybe you veered off a little bit or maybe you had trouble sticking right to it but i promise i promise it gets a lot easier with practice so in this chat i'm going to show you some quilted examples of wavy line quilting designs here's what i want to start with though they're going to be not a ton of pictures but a few pictures and i just want it to be kind of inspiring so don't let it be overwhelming i know i know sometimes i can be a little overwhelming i don't want it to be overwhelming but i do want to get you inspired i want you to think about how you can use those wavy rulers really what i'm doing is just a couple of different techniques and mixing them all together so whether i'm moving the position whether i'm changing up the spacing or changing the direction those three things are really going to help create the different effects now sometimes i'll do all three sometimes i'll just do one or two so when you're looking at these samples they might look like a lot of different things but it really boils down to those three things right changing the position changing the direction or changing the spacing really that's that's could pretty much sum up the next 30 minutes and then great questions great questions that came through so i'm excited to answer those so let's get right to it with the presentation so i'm going to go over a little bit first you know what we saw in the challenge and then i i'm going to go right into some of the questions because i do have some pictures to go with it but first of all the wavy borders so let's say you're thinking maybe i just want to tip toe into waves you know maybe i'm not ready to dive right in i'm going to kind of group these from easiest to i'm not going to say more complex but just more steps so in that dark blue border what i've done is just quilted a couple of wavy lines that go along each side i'm not even trying to turn the corner right i'm running it right off the edge and you know and i know it's because it's easier to do that way but if anybody asked me i would say something like i just love the juxtaposition of where the lines cross in the corners but we know it's just easier to do it that way so the nice thing about this is i'm working within a smaller defined area right i'm not having to reposition over the whole quilt i only have to travel a little bit and echo once so it's a good option for a smaller block i wouldn't do this over the whole quilt especially when you're first starting out but definitely a fun option all right so let's move on to the jumbled waves or the waves that we have kind of overlapping okay so this one was funny and i almost thought maybe i shouldn't even show this in the video because it seems pretty straightforward but i think it's fun to remember that as long as you look like you meant to do it it's fine so if you're quilting your waves and you're having trouble getting them to line up or maybe you're just trying to remember how to keep that point of contact between the foot just quilt them just quilt them so that they overlap and the trick here is not is to make it not look so messy so in this quilted sample which i quilted up when i started filming i have them overlapping quite a bit but it's fairly consistent i don't think one area really pops out more than the other and i think it works so overlap those lines now in the video i think i used two different sides of the ruler you don't have to use the same wave switch it up try different waves this is a great opportunity to practice especially if you're doing this on a piece of busy fabric where you can't see the quilting anyway or even if you're doing it on the panel it's fine once you quilt it you're not going to see all those lines and i know that's the hardest part about all this when i say stuff like that like oh just quilt it and if you don't like it just keep going but i promise once you put all those lines in there they're all going to start to blend together so quilting them so that they intentionally overlap is a fun option it's definitely going to make the quilting a little bit more dense so again spread those lines out you know leave a little space in between them or you'll drive yourself nuts quilting them everywhere okay next up would be the wavy crosshatch now this is great because if you're quilting those echo lines and it's not working out what are we going to do we're going to put more wavy lines except we're just gonna change up the direction right so i have my horizontal and i have my vertical now here's how i would approach this on a quilt if i were doing this on my sewing machine i probably would do all of one direction and then do the next direction so why why switch it up like that well if i do all my lines horizontal maybe i figure i don't want to do crosshatch anymore i'm done with this quilt i'm over it well maybe i could just leave it out but if i start cross hatching sometimes that means i might be committed to it so i like to you know wait till the very last minute to commit to that kind of thing another thing i love about this sample is those two waves the horizontal and the vertical horizontal and vertical are actually two different waves so using that wave f ruler the horizontal is the much more steep wave and the vertical is the more shallow wave i don't even think you can tell i mean i think that's what's fun about it so don't don't even think that you have to do the same wave for both directions and honestly i'm not worried about where those lines cross each other i'm trying to make sure that it's quilted consistently right i don't want any big gaps in the quilting but i'm not spacing out or worrying if it's not you know crossing right where it should when you're done you'll just have that nice all-over effect but let's say i don't know you do one direction and then you start your crosshatch and then you think you know what i'm kind of over this or maybe it's taking longer than you thought or maybe you're on a deadline and now it's time to be done you don't have to cross-hatch the whole quilt i think it would look really neat to have sections of you know the overlap and then sections that don't so you can kind of make it a choose your own adventure and add as much or as little as you'd like okay now let's get to the mirror imaging i hope i hope that made sense in the video um that was one of those things that i i can't over explain it because if i talk about it too much it gets really confusing right so what i'm doing is i'm quilting my wave and then i'm just flipping it over so that they mirror image each other now if you remember in the video i talked about how you can still work from the same side of the foot by just varying like where the lowest point is that's where the highest point will go if this was too confusing for you try it out with a pencil beforehand you won't have the same exact spacing but sometimes that will help you just like drawing it out will help you get the idea of where the ruler where it goes but here's what's fun about that mirror image it creates a really neat effect right i have that bigger area that's unquilted it's going to draw a little attention to that area and it's fun i think it creates a neat effect plus it's less dense than just quilting lines over the whole area so it's going to allow you to kind of break it up now what's fun about all the wavy designs that i'm going to be talking about is you can you can use them interchangeably you know if you're working on a quilt you could quote a few lines mirror image you can go back to regular lines you can kind of change it up as you go and i have an example of that here in just a second but don't feel like just because you do one technique means that you're committed over the whole quilt they're all wavy lines it's gonna look great just switch it onto something else so in this particular example i'm quilted i've quilted my line i've echoed it and then i've flipped it and echoed that so that echoing is what's really kind of helping create that smaller and then the bigger now remember in the echoing section when we just talked about quilting regular echoes if we want to change that spacing up we need to make sure that it looks intentional so in that area that quarter inch echo i kept it nice and close so that it would look intentionally smaller than my offset lines i wouldn't worry too much about this but it does make a difference when you're looking over the whole quilt does it i always ask myself does it look like i meant to do this even if i didn't mean to do it does it look intentional and if it looks intentional it usually looks good so if you can vary that spacing enough you'll get that effect that you're looking for so that means if you're having trouble keeping those lines consistently spaced just keep on going then kind of lean to that direction and really make them different it'll just make it make everything a little bit easier for you okay so now here's an example of just kind of stepped out a little bit more we're going to see this in a second when we get to the q a there's a lot of questions about elvira so we're going to talk about this but here is the elvira quilted echoed and then flipped and then echoed and flipped so i'm kind of following a routine here now what's different about this ruler is it's not a repeating wave we're going to talk about this in a second when we talk about it it makes a different shape right it kind of comes up at a point and kind of comes down we talked about how to um kind of find that repeat and so we'll see this here in a second but this is just a bigger example of a wavy kind of ruler quilted mirror image with those echo lines okay so on the blue part that little blue part on the side the dark blue here's another example of mirroring echoing cross hatching with the same shape so i just quilted the wavy lines did my echo so i'm just adding that third thing right i'm changing the spacing i'm changing the position and i'm changing the direction so this is just all those three things together so that's what i think is really cool about the wavy lines you can just do an all over or you can really start building up and doing some fun effects okay this one the bigger blue section that is overlapped and mirror imaged that's the only difference the the main thing about that though is it's spaced out consistently so instead of the overlapping lines being random like i did earlier in the picture earlier they're they're much more spaced out more consistently so that gives you that cool overlapping effect so i quilted the line overlapped it right on top of each other and then did the same thing over and over again again if you're not sure maybe kind of playing with it a little bit will help you out but it just goes to show you that being particular about the placement can create this more consistent effect okay this one's one of my favorites i'm curious to know what you guys thought about the rippled lines or the kind of how they get closer and further apart now i'll be honest as i'm quilting i kind of have to get my mind in the right place for wavy rulers and this is kind of what my wavy lines tend to do unintentionally so i'm like well i might as well just go for it the trick here is every wave we're going to shift the ruler one direction the same amount each line so here i did about a quarter of an inch you could do more or less if you do too much then you'll have a mirror image but and that's what's going to give it that really neat effect they get closer and further apart always make sure you're moving the ruler in the same direction that was in the beginning when i started quilting with this design i would forget i would go left and move the ruler left get over here and think i need to move it in the direction i'm heading and i'd go back this way oh that does create a cool effect but not that one so if i'm moving the ruler always to the right or always up or always down it needs to keep going that way one thing that didn't make it into the tutorial is if it helps using some kind of glow line tape or some washi tape to kind of mark out that increment will really help you so but again a really cool effect where i'm just changing the position of the ruler just ever so slightly to create that rippled lines now this example i took the picture and i took the quilt sample in two different pictures so it's a longer strip but over here on the right that's where i started quilting just those wavy lines nice and consistent but then as i worked my way to the left then i started varying making them rippled but then also varying the spacing between the lines okay so again same three things just a little different and that gives me the rippled effect but also those different echoes all right have you noticed when you're quilting if you've tried this have you noticed that maybe one direction your lines tend to be closer than the other direction oh that happens to me all the time and so this is me just embracing it i'm just going for it right i'm not sure if that's a depth of field kind of thing or if it's a dominant side kind of thing i do know that if i'm quilting horizontally my lines tend to be closer because i think i'm further than i'm actually from there so if you're having trouble keeping all directions the same distance just embrace it just go for it as long as it's consistent it's going to be fine but again another example of how you can move just from your regular waves to to those rippled ones and then i could have mirror imaged or overlapped or did any really anything that i wanted so definitely have fun with it now in this sample i was kind of cheating a little bit because it's just a quilted sample to to inspire you so i didn't even repeat the ruler this whole sample is about this big i just quilt along the ruler and then i'd shift it over and you know i did have to get good at that repeat but i think it's important to practice and it's important to practice on what it is you're practicing okay that sounded weird but i didn't want to worry about trying to reposition the ruler to do really long lines i wanted to get the effect and work on that if i wanted to work on repositioning and quilting one long line then i could have worked on that so don't don't stress yourself out by trying to figure everything out at the same time pick one thing to focus on and practice that then this is me practicing my ripples and then next if i need to practice on keeping it parallel then that's the next thing i practice on um i think it's important to just i don't know have fun with it i know that sounds so easy for me to say right because i i do have fun with it but if you have a ruler or a technique that you're wanting to learn put get a yard of fabric and just try so many different you know variations of that ruler try it all different directions and then quilt and then cut out the pieces that you like so i joke in my classes that all my samples are about this big because i just cut out the good ones and bring them to class so i think giving yourself permission to play a little bit the panel serves a specific purpose though the reason i have the panel is i'm giving you defined areas to fill in and sometimes that's good practice as well so definitely don't be afraid to practice because with this it's so much trial and error and just kind of finding out what it is that you like okay how about this one so this is in the the quilting diagrams i know it probably seemed a little confusing because i didn't address it in the video but it was just too good not to include just because you paid for the whole ruler doesn't mean you have to use the whole ruler so this is using just half of a ruler so this was using chevy but what i was doing was quilting halfway and then positioning so from low to high repositioning and that's giving me that stair step right you can do that with any ruler even if i have like the wave c i could go low to high reposition low to high it's going to give me this kind of stair step shape kind of fun right i will say on a long arm it's a little trickier because we have a defined horizontal space that we can see but on a sewing machine you can just go forever now knowing that right i'm repositioning halfway through not going all the way to the end then i'm echoing it which is what you see here but then i have spaces in between the echoes this is one of my favorites because it's a lot quicker i don't have to quilt that next that echo line it just gives me a cool effect but is faster but then you can also quilt them in sections and flip them around and overlap them with the mirror image okay so now this is like this is just me showing off just a little bit right like oh my gosh this is crazy okay the thing is just showing you an example of how you can combine these three things and create those different effects you don't have to remember how to do this right here but just remember those three things we talked about you can change them up and create so many different styles all right other ways to use wavy rulers that i didn't really touch on in the video is to create spaces or sections to fill in so this the black line which i wouldn't normally quilt black but i did so you could see it is it's my wave a it's a big wave ruler so i pulled to my wavy line i quilted the next one so that it mirror imaged but that they touched and that's creating these consistent sections that i can then come back in and fill in with different free motion designs you don't have to just do rulers or just do free motion you can easily switch in between the two this is a great way to take your bigger areas break them up into manageable chunks and then fill them in so use your wavy rulers to break up your area so that you can fill it in with other designs or you can be a little bit more intentional instead of having those you know kind of pod shapes i could just quilt my echo lines further apart and then come fill it in with a different different filler like wishbones so let's pretend hypothetically that you're new to machine quilting and you are learning rulers for the first time well soon you're going to be a pro you're going to be really good at it but then you want to learn wishbones well then it's tricky to learn something new over a whole quilt right so do something that you know and then just throw in a little bit of something that you don't i mean if you're quilting that in just that little section you can't really pass out from holding your breath right that's i don't know if you think that's funny that's a joke i tell my classes and it usually kills but you don't have to do hard stuff over the whole quilt so leave yourself little gaps and come back and fill them in later whether it's with a new design or a different technique you can also use those wavy rulers to create vines or spines of your feathers so here i've just quilted especially if you want that feather to be nice and consistent or you can also incorporate it into other swirly designs such as that okay this is this is just a bonus when you're practicing when you have all your rulers if you collect rulers such as like i do sometimes it's hard to remember what ruler looks like what or what you can do i just i loaded a piece of fabric and i quilted out some samples and then i also quilted the name of the ruler you could write it on there too but it's nice to remember because when you get done with all these samples it might be hard to remember what ruler you created with that you know or what ruler you use to create that effect so either writing it on there keeping track will help you out and i did it over here too so wave c just helps me keep track of my samples and i have them in a stack and sometimes i just pull them out and look at my pretty quilted samples so a great idea to kind of have all those quilting designs there for you to look at okay we're not going to touch on this right now but towards the end of the challenge we'll talk about how to combine wavy lines with other with other designs so here we're combining wavy rulers with clam shell rulers and this is a lot of fun to create those those pops a little bit of a different texture so it's a great combination it works well with other rulers works well by itself they work well with free motion quilting just a really good a good option for you okay i should apolo i'm not gonna apologize i'm kind of a mean teacher have you noticed i put you in predicaments so that you can work through them um and this was very intentional just know i do it for you right okay so did you notice the area that we're filling in has one straight side and one diagonal side right we're learning how do we echo or how do we reposition if it's on a diagonal so i hope it made sense when i said look i'm going to leave the ruler in place i'm going to travel on the edge and then i'm going to slide the ruler directly over or directly up i don't want to shift it to one side if i want perfect echoes this being said you're not always going to have a perfect square to fill in with your wavy lines you're going to have to get you don't have to it will really help you if you get comfortable repeating your lines in those irregular areas that diagonal side is going to be the first little tip toe into learning how to reposition your ruler and that so once we get that down then we can start putting it around other things like those curves we just saw so if you have trouble repositioning just remember even though i'm traveling along the diagonal that ruler is still moving up or moving in the direction i'm heading without shifting over unless i want it to shift over so if that if that trick if that trips you up try not to be too mad it's really going to help you when you come along actual quilts so there's that okay so let's talk about elvira real quick so there were some questions about the lines on elvira and i'm going to just pause one second make sure you can see okay so the lines on elvira or let me back up it let's say you have a ruler that's not a repeating wave so most wavy rulers will if you quilt end to end will make a nice repeating wave that's great some don't this one doesn't because i want it to be versatile i want to do other things so if i quilt along it i'm going to end on up i start on the up and i end on it up so i'm going to get like a little point where they come together super cute but what if you don't want that if you have a ruler what you need to look and if you look on the kind of handout here or on the picture i have these black lines they're telling me show me exactly the lowest point the highest point and the midpoint so all i have to do is find like let's say the lowest point i could quilt lowest point to lowest point and reposition lowest point to lowest point in reposition i'm going from the same points so when i talked about you know making a mirror image if i'm at the high that means the next time i'm going to reposition it my quilting i'm going to reposition it so the low is right there those black lines are just helping giving me reference points that i know where to reposition so in the handout i'm going to go from start a to b i'm going to end up over here right well i know that this is the midpoint right because here's high it's not the highest point here's low it's not the lowest it's this point right here so when i shift it over i can shift it to this one or i can shift it to this one so i'm going to shift it over to the second one over and then continue on so all that diagram is just showing you with this specific ruler how you find the repeat but i even if you don't have elvira whatever one you do have look for the same points now this is what's cool about this idea that one of the questions was when i'm quilting on my long arm i get little start like tiny stitches as i'm getting closer or as i stop and start well that's because we're repositioning and that's totally normal but you can always change up that reposition so if i always reposition the same spot every line i'll have a little row of little stitches let me pause if this is too confusing just tune me out for a second right you're like i don't i don't know what she's talking about but for those of you that are comfortable with wavy rulers and have seen this what i can do is i know now i'm going to reposition so i could quilt to the top right and then i could reposition to the next top line um this would be a better example so i have my uh i'm sorry you can't really see it so i have two lows and i have three tops so i can quilt to my top and i can reposition back to my top i can quilt to my low and reposition back to my low so i can change where that repositioning is happening again if that's too much to think about sometimes i get so into these things i just like to make it efficient but varying the position from where you always transition the ruler will kind of keep it a little bit more hidden then it becomes a little pops of texture as the little stitches are here and there so again if that's too much sometimes i get too into the details and can lose everybody but you can vary where you put your positioning or where your reposition if you find the similar spot on your ruler okay so that's that's the quick answer of that all right so we're going to go into question and answer but i wanted to address this with a picture so one of the questions was specifically for long arm needles what's with all the numbers on here so that was one of the questions on the chat and i as much as i can talk about quilting and rulers i could go on and on about threads needle and tension i love it i love talking about all that kind of stuff so here's the thing all of this is straight from superior threads website superiorthreads.com this is none of my information i didn't take the time to make this little graphic i just screenshotted it for you but um the most important thing to remember is you can find this on our website but all these numbers have like a meaning but they really don't matter for us we just want to know what size we need so if i switch again to the next one sorry let me move over here okay so what are we looking at here well there's all sorts of different things here's the most important one up at the top top right where it says 90 14. that means it's a 14 needle that's the size of the eye the mr that's on the left at the bottom that means it's a multi-ranger it goes in a lot of different directions that is specific that's what we need and then where it says g-e-b-e-d-u-r or whatever that means that it's a titanium coated but the most important thing is you want to look for that the mr and then the size and the size of needle you use depends on the kind of thread so and i also this is for rebecca i found this on their website as well it's a long arm machidal machine needle guide that will show you exactly what needles to order for your machine so i know my head's covering up some of these but i'll put a link to this stuff in the description box when we're done but also it comes straight from superior threads i mean they have such great resources you could definitely check it out okay so that part kind of ends the slideshow portion of it hopefully that wasn't too much or too confusing for you all right so what we're going to do now let me scoot that over let's talk about the q a the things that came through and see how everybody is doing sorry i'm kind of i'm like the director and behind the camera so i'm switching through all this stuff um okay so i love that you pointed out repositioning to avoid the stitching yes so helpful right maya i always say i'm not good at uh i'm not thinking i'm better culture than anybody i'm just really good at hiding my mistakes okay so judy asked the question about the elvira ruler and mary rose i think so hopefully that makes sense to go back to elvira i'm just looking at my notes you can definitely get those handouts from the downloadable for this this week's challenge but they're also on my website as well so you can check that out okay valerie asked do i use the titanium top stitch needles when i'm quilting with rulers yeah i use those all the time i love those again superior will tell you all about it probably more than you want to know but um they're stronger so they hold up a little bit more when i'm pushing and pulling and they stay sharper longer so i really do like those okay um oh yeah marios thank you don't forget to like the video yeah like and subscribe that always helps i kind of forget the whole call to action thing i just want to talk about quilting so okay kathy said she found the border of the square difficult to quilt with the rulers and so i didn't know if it was the dark blue thinner border or if it was just you know that whole outside here's the thing wind machine quilting especially on a sewing machine gravity is our enemy we don't like it it's kind of like everywhere else right so even if i'm stopping and i do i cut all this out of the video because it would just be boring to watch me shift the quilt but i'm constantly pulling it up making sure that it's not hanging down the edge of the table because then i'm fighting gravity and that's just really hard so definitely keep the quilt up another thing that wasn't asked but i have noticed in myself when i'm quilting let's have my ruler my left hand and my other one my right i tend to start curving right so my right hand my dominant hand tends to push a little bit more and so i have to constantly reposition and bring it back it doesn't matter because the ruler is keeping me straight to the quilt but if you notice that as well it's just that you have that one that one dominant side oh kathy said the thin border okay so that border i'm quilting along it traveling and coming back and so then i wonder if it was the repositioning going to the next side i just traveled over to the next one and then continued on but you could break thread another reason is it's now we're starting to get towards the center of the quilt right so we started kind of towards the top and now we're getting to the heavier part so it just just take your time it promise it'll get easier i have an extension table for my sewing machine which i love really helps it just keeps everything also up even with the quilt so hopefully it gets easier i promise with practice it does all right next question deb okay we talked about the too many stitches when starting and stopping on the long arm that is i quilted manual so that happens naturally for me because you know i'll turn it off or you know i don't turn off quite fast enough it it'll work itself out i promise i think varying the position would be the best option for that or using a stitch regulator or just knowing like i don't know it'll it'll be fine even if you do have a couple of stitches as long it probably happens every time so it's going to look consistent i will say using a matching thread color helps so if you're you know using a contrasting thread that can be a little like huh kind of overwhelming but i promise once you're done and it's off especially in the long arm because that long arm keeps it so taut that it's just like everything is out there for you to see right every mistake but once you take it off and it eases and it kind of i don't know absorbs into the quilts a little bit it doesn't become as noticeable so don't beat yourself up too much for that like i said great questions guys um becky had the best question i've have never been asked some of these but if i could only get one ruler if i can only afford one wavy ruler which one would it be i have to preface this it depends right for me i'm talking for me specifically i would do elvira or the wave f i love them both i probably would do elvira um well i did design a virus so there is that but elvira does you know the continuous curve and it makes a different design than just a wave but i would aim for a smaller shorter ruler nice and short that has a wave that's it i mean all those effects that you saw can be created with any ruler they'll look a little different but they can be created but then she said on the flip side if money were no object what wavy rulers would i get all of them oh well maybe not i do love my rulers though i like the handy culture waves they have you know wave a b c d e f i would have all those um i don't have all of them i sell them but i don't have all of them just it's fun to have a different way because you never know what effect you want but remember it doesn't matter as long as you have something that creates a wave but it was kind of fun i took a moment and i thought what would i do if i were going to be on a desert island with my long run with only one wavy ruler which one would it be so kind of fun um all right so that was the questions i i kind of wrote down i'm gonna take a second and scroll through um some people i thought was interesting some people said that they did better with the ways and they did this the straight other peoples other people were like you're nuts totally normal totally normal in a class we find different things easier we all have different things that come easier things that come more difficult and so usually in a class i like to change it up like this so that you know if you're not good at straight you're usually better at curvy so that way you can kind of if this one isn't yours the next one might be right so totally normal it's just something you just practice will get better and if you think well i don't really love quilting straight edge rulers maybe you don't so try not to worry too much about it but totally normal for people to like like different stuff um susan i would give up cheese to get more rulers i love that i don't i don't know if i'd give up cheese i would i would say um maybe maybe um stacey is a good question do i consider the sit down machines long arms or sewing machines okay i kind of use long i kind of use those words wrong a sit down long arm is technically a long arm but when i'm teaching i'm thinking am i moving the quilt or am i moving the machine right so when i'm demonstrating on the sewing machine i'm moving the quilt and so you can see you know what that looks like and then how long am i moving the machine so usually that's the distinction that i make that's the more important one for me is are you moving the quilt or the machine but it doesn't matter as long as you you know long as you practice um roadie girl are smaller waves easily for easier for a beginner yes um shallower waves so think shallow the more drastic the wave the more the point of contact changes and if you have a shorter ruler it can be less overwhelming there's some wave rulers that are pretty long but that might be the best but it depends everybody's different so just start with one and see how you like it okay um totally off topic you guys but did you notice my pretty set back here we've been filming the midnight quilter the new series it's going to start next month it's going to start after the challenge i'm so excited and i gotta show you okay so i just got this today but and don't email asking for it it's not gonna be available for sale yet it'll be when the challenge or when the series starts but look what i just got today the midnight quilter it's a wine it's a wine cup i'm so excited so these will be for sale eventually but i just think it's adorable i just got it and some other fun stuff like i turn wine into quilts anywho so be on the lookout for that kind of fun um it's been fun kind of getting back into that to that role so all right that was off topic sorry about that this is kind of how i am in real life so the winner of this week's panel was quintana frazier and i'll be reaching out to quintana and letting them know that they can get it the next giveaway is another panel from the first challenge or from the help how do i quilt it challenge so that was the first one where i introduced my own panel so we'll get that one and what's kind of fun is that that challenge how do i quilt it was announced a year ago tomorrow so it's kind of fun that you know i thought we could celebrate the year anniversary of that challenge so when we're done i'm going to put that link into the description and you can enter by just clicking on that link and putting your email address and then i'll contact the winner or i'll let the winner know next week at our live chat okay so next week's challenge we're going to be doing arcs so arcs and creating motifs and more importantly learning how to use just part of the ruler we don't have to use the whole arc and we can reposition so i'm kind of excited to see what you think about it i'm switching up the filming style just a bit so it's a little bit more back and forth we'll see and i think i think it's going to be a great time i do appreciate you all hanging out with me and talking about wavy rulers and rulers in general i can't wait to be back next week and i will see you then until then happy quilting you
