DreamWeaver's Quilts Quilt Epiphany Weblog

Remember when most sewing machines didn’t have ¼” presser feet and quilters used a strip of moleskin foot padding stuck to the machine bed as a seam guide? These days, you can purchase a ¼” foot for most machines, but don’t throw out the moleskin just yet!
