Abigail Sheridan de Graaff is a Handi Quilter Educator and Professional Longarm Quilter. From her quilting studio in Shipston-on-Stour in Warwickshire Abigail uses a Handi Quilter Amara 20" longarm machine with the computerised Pro-Stitcher system to complete her own as well as customer quilts through her business Cut&Alter.   In this blog feature Abigail explores Glide 40wt and 60wt thread, the quilter's palette. But as you'll discover, Glide thread is not just for quilting. Our Glide Thread Club launched in 2020 - you can build the entire Glide 40wt thread collection with the 27 sets of 9 1000m cones. No threads are repeated so you can confidently purchase knowing you won't have two the same!  For more details visit the Thread Club pages on our website - Glide Thread Club. Before I bought my longarm machine I have to admit I knew nothing about thread, although I was not aware of this shortcoming!  Basically I bought whatever was in the local shop if it wa...

Shredding Thread, Skipped Stitches and Stitch Formation - Explained by Liz Holpin, Pinhole Quilting There is nothing more frustrating than when you're quilting along and you find your thread is skipping stitches, the thread is shredding or breaking. It can really affect your quilting mojo!  You check you thread and your needle and can't find out what is wrong.

We'll also consider some aspects of the thread and what might be happening there.  We'll also cover Timing, Needles and in particular the High Speed or MR Needles. We hope that with this knowledge you will be able to analyse what is happening with your machine and fix your skipped stitches with less frustration so that you can get on and quilt! This information is for Handi Quilter machines. Much of this content is taken from the Technical Guidance notes written by Glen Salter at Handi Quilter Technical Support and is copy...

In Honour of Hugo by Pauline Burbidge

Our most creative moments can be born of difficult times. " In Honour of Hugo " is a quilt by Handi Quilter Ambassador Pauline Burbidge that demonstrates how arts and quilting can be therapeutic for the maker and for those who view it. The making of a quilt called “In Honour of Hugo”, made by  Pauline Burbidge in 2023/2024. I made this quilt in honour of the late, great, Hugo Burge who lived at Marchmont House. He set up a foundation to help support “Makers and Creators”. The quilt celebrates Hugo’s life, energy, and generous spirit. His vision has transformed the Arts & Crafts in the Scottish Borders and beyond.  The landscape of the Marchmont estate has changed and we begin to adjust to life without Hugo. This piece is no longer the same as its original commission, it has grown and emerged from what was in my mind. The image of the Oak Tree, Hugo’s favourite, has grown from collecting many leaves from around Marchmont, printing, drawing and making rubbings of them, and...
