This book has recently been released to rave reviews, and I’m loving it.

We have so many books on Free-motion quilting now that I’ve created a new category to help you find them easily! Hopefully, I’ve found them all to add to the website!!

Did you know that we also stock quite a few tools that will aid you with your free-motion quilting endeavours?

Here are some of them to consider:

Supreme Free-Motion Slider™

in both Letter size & Queen size and they are on SALE!

The Gypsy Quilter Grip & Stitch Quilting Disks designed by Ellen Holder

Introducing the Grip & Stitch® Quilting Disks – your new best friends for free-motion quilting! These handy disks make it super easy to move your quilt around as you stitch. Featuring two types of foam on either side, you’ll get a perfect grip on almost any fabric. Simply hold the smaller disk in your right hand and the larger one in your left, place them on your quilt, and start stitching away.

The Gypsy Quilter Fabulous Fabric Glide

The Gypsy Quilter Fabulous Fabric Glide is a set of two semi-hoops that control the fabric during free-motion quilting on a standard home sewing machine. The squared shape allows a larger area to be quilted before needing to re-position the glide. They are easy to use and extremely light weight. Retain the desired fabric tension in all directions while preventing bunching. Relaxed hand positioning prevents hand, wrist and shoulder fatigue normally experienced when attempting to control the fabric.

Quilt Halo

This QUILT HALO sits on top of your fabric, and the rubbery edge keeps fabric taut with minimal pressure. Easy on the hands — you just slide your quilting around with gentle pressure. Designed by Sharon Schamber, author, teacher and master quilter!

Matilda’s Own Quilting Cotton gloves

are made for machine quilters with tiny grip dots. They are very comfortable as they are made from stretch cotton. Available in 3 sizes

Of course I also have a huge selection of rulers suitable to use with high shank & longarm sewing machines. Both my own branded Aussie made rulers plus many from creative designers around the world.

You can view them all on the website.

Happy quilting
