Make Quilting More Accessible

Quilting, crafting, creating are all great activities for your brain, but they can be tough on your body without making some adjustments. Fortunately, we have a great set of tools to make quilting more accessible to everyone. Think ergonomically designed notions to ease the physical demands of quilting, adjustable workstations, and sewing gadgets to reduce strain. We want to make sure that anyone who wants to can quilt, so check out our favorite tools and notions to make quilting more accessible. 

 

Oliso Iron

Everyone wants a great iron, and the Oliso SmartIron with iTouch technology is a fantastic choice for increased accessibility. All you have to do is touch the handle and the iron lowers, ready to quickly smooth out creases and press seams without straining your wrists. Once you remove your hand, patented scorch guards lift the iron from the board and your fabric preventing burns and tipping.

TrueCut Comfort Cutter

The TrueCut Comfort cutter is a redesigned ergonomic rotary cutter. The grip is curved and designed to make rotary cutting easier and more accurate while reducing stress on your wrist and arm. 

Little Gripper

The Little Gripper gives you more control with your rulers while cutting your fabric for quilts. The Gripper evenly distributes pressure while allowing you to relax your hand comfortably over the handle instead of steepling your hand and putting pressure on your fingers.

Large Gripper

The Little Gripper is great for your small rulers and templates, and the Large Gripper is perfect for your big rulers and cutting strips. It has two suction cups to lock onto your ruler and spread out the pressure while you hold it steady.

Horn Hydraulic Lift Table

The Horn Hydraulic Lift Table moves with the touch of a button between 29” sitting height and 40” standing height. Standing tables can help reduce back pain and give you a better posture while stitching.

Stationary Longarm

Make quilting easier on your body with a stationary longarm like the Amara ST or the new Moxie ST. No more having to wrestle your quilt through your domestic sewing machine, but still comfortably sit and quilt your large projects.

Machingers Gloves

The Machingers gloves help you hold on to your project while quilting, thread painting, and embroidering with their fingertip grips. They also help support your wrists to relieve tension and stress as you work.
