How to Use This Blog

Since we have lots and lots of videos here, you will need to know the best way of finding what you are looking for. Each post has the video(s) of the topic it is about. Sometimes there will be more than one video that is a continuation of the previous one. These videos will be posted together within the same post. To find what you are looking for, either use the search box or the list of categories posted in the right column.


The IQ system is constantly evolving, so please keep in mind that some of the older videos may show features that have been replaced by newer ones, or buttons that have changed position or names. However, the videos have not been removed because the methods demonstrated are still valid.

Clamshell - step by step.

There is no need to buy a clamshell pattern - just use the geometric catalog to create your own. Follow these steps:

At the main menu select Design/Sew quilt.

Start new. Answer the pop up questions to your liking.

Pantograph.

Enter rectangle manually.

Enter the size of your quilt. Continue.



Check that the dimensions are correct, then touch finished.

Select the geometric catalog. Find half circle and touch it to select for the odd rows. Continue. 



Find half circle offset and touch it to select it for the even rows. Continue.



You'll see that iQ has made the rows 12" high, as usual. Change this to suit your needs.





All done - your clamshell quilt is now ready.
