just noticed (as i re-explore the option of trying this technique) that the 2017 mystery project looks like you are just using the batting on tape with fabric on top of that...so essentially the

I use Superior MonoPoly. It works wonderfully. As Jim pointed out, it is very hard to see. I lay the end of it on a piece of paper and mark it with a black Sharpie permanent marker before I start

FWIW, I love the Superior polyester Mono-Poly... it is flexible, it flows through the machine very well, and is "invisible" on the fabric. I have a Christmas tree panel that I put lights into that

The wonderful thing about monofilament thread is that you can't see it, so quilting stitches are invisible. The terrible thing about monofilament thread is that you can't see it, so it becomes

I am quilting a table runner and want to use monofilament for the stitch in the ditch areas. I’ll use 50wt bobbin thread to match backing. Should I use the vertical thread holder for the

The tips Jim and Dianne give are TOTALLY AMAZING!!! The time they dedicates to this group indicates his love for sewing, quilting, and for helping others. I can’t say enough how much I appreciate
