Please keep a copy of your book for me, I’m coming on Sunday. Also I have been told by Valerie Knowles that you have tassel frames. Not sure if you’ll have them with you but I can ask you on Sunday
Many thanks

let me know what you would like.

Hi Janet, I have just got your wonderful book but I am puzzled by one thing so far. What is a tufting foot? Looked on the internet and they only come up with tufting machines for carpets. Maybe it is called something different in the States.

Hi Jackqui
a tufting foot is one that is used traditionally for tailors tacks in dressmaking. It makes looped stitches, normally to mark a position or line. I use it to create texture. The stitches should be stabilised on the back of the fabric by using bondaweb. this prevents the stitches from pulling out.
