Thanks for all your wonderful videos and sharing all your tips and techniques. According to Juki it will fit the following machines: This foot does not hop but has a height adjustment screw. It works beautifully with needle down and the presser foot up and rulers fit under it from every angle.

Juki now makes a ruler foot for all the TL series machines although you will really have to search to buy one. I thought I would pass on this news to you for other Juki owning followers. The first foot I used was a custom modified version of the standard Juki quilting foot but I could not have the needle fully down with the presser foot up and rulers didn't fit under it from the back. Machine Quilting Rulers Template Rulers allow you to complete quilt designs like a professional. I have been using rulers to quilt with my Juki for about a year. Used in conjunction with Westalee Design quilting. The Westalee Design acrylic templates help you to elevate your quilting by allowing you to create beautiful patterns and projects by using one of over 400 different templates. I marked straight lines 1 inch apart in order to space these shapes perfectly: Westalee templates are designed for use with the 1/2' Ruler foot, and most can be made for longarm machines as well.
Here I’ve used Template #7 from the Dresden Plate Template set to quilt overlaping shells. Once you feel comfortable with straight lines, branch out with other designs. Mark some straight lines on your quilt as a guideline, then try quilting evenly spaced lines 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 inches apart. I do think straight lines are the easiest so give them a go first.

This will feel just like free motion quilting, but managing the additional ruler on top of the quilt might take awhile to get used to. I also like wearing Machingers Gloves, which I always wear while quilting, but they seem especially handy for gripping both the quilt and the template at the same time.Īfter you get your templates ready to go the next step is just to practice! I’d start with a small block or fat quarter sized practice sandwich. I like using True Grips which help keep the templates in place so they don’t slip as I quilt. The key is keeping the ruler in position on the quilt and next to the ruler foot. This set of templates can cut dozens of Dresden Plates AND can be used for ruler foot quilting – how’s that for multitasking!
