Patti you almost have to have a way to gauge a quarter inch at pressur foot
level. Since I have a foot that is quarter inch on each side of the needle there is no need to put the fabric in "the wrong way round". I just guide the left side of the pressure foot along the seam line. It really does work well. If you can adjust the needle to the left that will work too, or make the investment of a quarter inch foot. G Pati, in Phx Patti wrote: Hullo Pati I've heard this several times before, but I'm not really sure how it's done. Does it mean that you have to put your work into the machine the 'wrong' way round? I use my stitch position for a 1/4" seam, rather than a foot. So to get the right seam allowance following the last seam, that seam would, I think, have to be on the right of my needle. It would be a good thing if I could get to grips with this. I would love to use really fine lines - all over the place!!! . In article , Pati Cook writes I'm not Paegan, but when you piece in a quarter inch wide strip, use the edge of your quarter inch foot along the already sewn seam line to get an accurate and straight quarter inch piece.

Thanks so much for this, Pati.
I might actually *have* the foot!! I have just always used the seam width button. I'll check; and, if not, buy one. Believe it or not, I just had never thought of it. I do so many small things, it will be really useful to master it. .. In article , Pati Cook writes Patti you almost have to have a way to gauge a quarter inch at pressur foot level.

You guys are just so nice for all the compliments. It's nice to share
them with people who appreciate all the hard work it takes to make one. I've never sold a quilt for money, but have given many away. But only to people who will understand that they really are a labor of love. Regards Susan PS the head popping up in quilt 1 is one of my springer spaniels. His name is Brisco.

Patti:
Be sure to check BOTH edges of the foot for accurate 1/4" measurement. Pati has one that measures 1/4" on both sides (lucky!) but my Pfaff 1/4" foot has 3/8" along left side. Must have made sense to the engineer who designed it but it does not make sense to me. Perhaps there are garment sewing reasons for that size. Anyhow, check your own presser feet. Don't ya just love it w hen we all three chime in on a thread. Must confuse the rest of the world though!! Grins from: PAT in VA/USA Patti wrote: Thanks so much for this, Pati.
