Super Spiral is a tricky design to quilt on a longarm because it’s limited by the size of your frame. The bars to the front and back of the frame, plus the size of the longarm machine limit the size of the spiral.
If I quilted this Super Spiral on my
Qnique 15 longarm, I would only be able to stitch a 10-inch spiral before I ran out of space. So understand this design only worked in this block thanks to my Qnique 21 and the huge amount of open space I have to quilt in.
So what do you do if you have a smaller longarm or you don’t have a longarm at all? Use your home machine!
Super Spiral is actually a very easy design to quilt
with a walking foot. Watch this video to learn how to quilt Super Spiral with walking foot quilting – and on a treadle machine no less!
