Extended Base Unit

 

With the help of an engineer, it has taken me nearly a year to design this Extended Base Unit. Please take a few minutes to view this video of my NEW Extended Base Unit. 

Some important features about my Extended Base Unit (EBU) are:

  • The EBU is easy to put on and take off of the quilting machine

  • It is not necessary to move or re-position the hopping foot to put the EBU on the quilting machine.

  • The EBU fits securely to the quilting machine

  • The EBU is made from aluminum with a baked on powder coating.

  • When installed, the EBU allows easy access to the bobbin case.

At this time the Extended Base Unit will only fit the Gammill quilting machine.

Wide Backing Fabrics
These fabrics 108 inches wide and
are 100% cotton

 

Note: Many times the raw edges of wide fabrics do not cut or tear "evenly". Because of this I recommend purchasing 1/2 yard more fabric than you need. Ask me how I know this!

Minimum cut, 1 yard, then 1/2 yard increments. Please enter Quantity as a decimal.

Example: 3 1/2 yards = 3.5 yards

GripLite
Side Clamps

Over the years I have been trying to find a good, stable, side clamp. This clamp is the best I have found to date. I have been testing them for the last few weeks and they work really well! Even though they are light, they grip the fabric well and don't slip when secured.  I really like the double Velcro straps - the Velcro even sticks to itself which means you can loop the strap around your machine in different ways. Think of those really odd shaped quilts that are such a challenge to put on to the machine. There are two clamps in each package.

Re-closable Zippered
Storage Bags

I use these bags to place my templates in and discovered they are the BEST for storing my quilting and piecing projects. They are large, 16 x 16 inches, heavy duty (4 mil thick), clear plastic,
re-closable, and best of all, they hold a LOT! I love these bags for completed quilt blocks - quilt blocks ( up to 15 inches square) will lay flat and smooth. I have even put an unquilted queen size quilt in one with room left over! You will find many storage uses for these bags. And they are very reasonably priced!

In the first photo above I have a pieced quilt (it is unquilted) which is 74 x 104 inches.  There is also fabric folded in it for the binding.  The other two photos are of a project in progress (UFO) . One photo shows the pieces of this project including 26 fat quarters (some have already been cut into), 4 one yard pieces of background fabric, many pieced half square triangles and four patches and 14 - 12 inch pieced blocks! There is still room in this bag for more fabric and pieced blocks.


7 bags for only $10!


15 bags for only $20!

This mug is designed especially for longarm quilters! If you have attended any of Cindy Roth's classes you will remember her saying this time and time again. Now you can be reminded of Cindy's "Rules of Quilting" every time you drink your coffee, tea or other beverage! This mug also makes a great gift for your quilting friends.

According to Cindy Roth there are:

3 Rules of Quilting

1) There are NO rules!
2) There are NO quilt police!
3) Refer to Rule #1 and Rule #2!

Remember Rule #1!
