Will the Supreme Slider fit on my machine?
There is a Supreme Freemotion Slider to fit any sewing machine.
The ORIGINAL SUPREME SLIDER measures 8" x 11.5" and is perfect for most home sewing machines. It is easily trimmed with scissors if you want to adjust the size.
The new QUEEN SLIDER measures 11.5" x 17" and is especially sized for longarm machines. It is perfect for the new Bernina 8 series and Janome 6600. For smaller home machines that are set into a table, it completely covers all the surrounding cracks, giving you one large, smooth, snag-free work area for your quilting.
CUSTOM SIZES are available also. Just send us an email and let us know what size you need.
How do I clean my SUPREME SLIDER?
It's SO EASY to keep your SUPREME SLIDER clean. Simply remove from the sewing machine bed, and run under warm water to remove any lint, and let dry. After it is dry, the pink self-sticking back lets you lay the SUPREME SLIDER back on the machine, no messy tape or adhesives needed!
How do I attach the SUPREME SLIDER to my machine?
The white top of the SUPREME SLIDER lets your fabric slide around with no friction for easy quiling. The PINK BOTTOM of the slider is SELF-STICKING and grips your machine bed without messy tape or adhesives! Our patented special sticky bottom holds on without any problem!
Make sure the Slider does not hang over the sides, where the weight of a quilt could lift it from the machine bed. If necessary, trim to fit your machine bed with scissors.
If you are having trouble with the SLIDER moving and not sticking, it is time to clean the slider under warm water to remove any lint or dirt. Simply let air dry, and replace on your machine.
Do the LITTLE GENIE BOBBIN WASHERS work with plastic bobbins?
Yes, they work with plastic bobbins and metal bobbins also. Just drop one into your bobbin case, and see how they prevent the birds nests and snarls that happen when you are sewing fast. Little Genie Magic Bobbin Washers, available for home machines and our Mega Genie Magic Bobbin Washers are sized especially for longarm machines.
These bobbin washers are made of teflon and are tough and longlasting, a great investment in sewing with less hassles!
Do the LITTLE GENIE BOBBIN WASHERS work with prewound bobbins?
One bobbin washer is inserted into the empty bobbin case. Then you insert your prewound bobbin into the bobbin case. Voila! Now you are ready to enjoy snag-free, snarl-free sewing. Easy!
Which side of the BOBBIN WASHER is up?
Both sides of the LITTLE GENIE BOBBIN WASHER and MEGA GENIE BOBBIN WASHER are exactly the same. You can insert one into your bobbin case and either side of the bobbin washer will do its job of eliminating snags and snarls!
