Christmas countdown……. Gift suggestion #6 Ruler quilting tools

Today we offer gift suggestion #6. 

That means we only have 4 days left until Christmas. Yikes!   Hope you are all ready, but if not, here is great gift suggestion for your favorite quilter. 

A fantastic addition to a quilter’s stash of accessories are RULER feet.  Ruler quilting is the all the rage with quilters.  A fun way to quilt and create new designs and patterns so much more easily. 

The QR foot (pictured above) is quick and easy to attach.  The thicker base of the foot is what you need for quilting with rulers.  The open V divet shape at the front of the foot facilitates a better view of the project you are sewing. This QR foot is compatible with the following Janome models: MC 15000 Quilt maker ( version 3); Horizon MC9400 which has been  upgraded for Ruler work ++ and also the new Horizon MC9450. This QR foot is not currently compatible with any other Janome models……see below for which foot to use on other Janome models.

Our Convertible Free Motion Quilting Foot Set (pictured above) meets the needs of most other Janome ruler quilters.  Everyone has their favorite foot to use for quilting.  This set has a Closed Foot for general use: an Open Foot for extra visibility and the Clearview Foot for uneven surfaces and evenly spaced echo  quilting. In addition to the 3 attachments shown in the pic above which are included with the purchase of this foot, there is one more attachment required for Ruler quilting: it is what you see attached to the Convertible free motion foot in pic above (yellow arrow points to it) – most people refer to this as the “Ruler Foot” but that is not the name on the Janome blister pack. It is called the Frame foot set for 1600P. Part # 767434005 but it fits this foot perfectly!  Ask your local Janome dealer to show you these feet.
