This is one of the best prepared quilting videos on UA-cam! Everything in it is 100% right on the dot! Thank you so much!
Happy to share!
Excellent demos of all aspects of FMQ & machine settings!!
I have a Husqvarna Viking Rose Embroidery machine that I bought in the mid to late 90s & I love it for everything!! I haven't embroidered with it in quite some time but it is a work horse for any sewing job, including making cushion covers, upholstery work or clothing & repairs!
It has also been a long time since I did any amount of quilting, as I am not really "a quilter" but recently became interesting in making some small projects again & hope to go bigger with time. I tend to try to make things go faster but will take my time as I start over. FMQ is fun as I have done it before & look forward to getting started again soon.
We are emptying my sewing room that was "taken over by aliens", to reorganize it & clear my cutting table & set up my machine back down into the desk I remodeled for it.
The information I learned from you video will be very helpful & I thank you!
Best explanation and demonstration of free motion quilting I could have found. I have a Viking Opal 650 and I'm eager to learn more about quilting techniques on this machine. You make it look and sound easy.
A lot of great info in here! My only beef is the constant assertions / assumptions that ‘ladies’ are the target demo. That could very well be your primary viewership, but there are plenty of us fellas that enjoy quilting, too.
I agree....excellent tutorial and information, but not only for the ladies.
Yep, I was taken aback by the "ladies ask me" as well, but maybe all the experience she has had with these questions have been from women? So... fellas, dont be afraid to ask for directions, haha!
Also agree. Quilting for everyone!
Dislike from me lol
@Glen Spivey that's funny😂 I'm sorry, I don't think she meant to leave men out, she just was going from her experience. My son can sew better then me, I think men sewing is awesome. Have a good day☺
This is the best free motion explanation ever, thks so much from a beginner machine quilting on my domestic...hugs
You are such a good teacher! Many helpful details, lots of good advice. Thank you!
Glad to hear it thank you!
I am a newby, your tips were not only instructional they were clear and easy to understand. Thank you.
You have absolutely changed my fear of free motion quilting and I wanted to tell you that it made all the difference in my quilting. Specifically changing my sewing machine speed and stitch length was the aha lightbulb trick to make quilting enjoyable. Thank you, thank you, thank you. No need for me to watch any other youtubes!!!
I'm so glad! you are so sweet! I'm sorry I havn't seen your comment till now and I am truly happy that you can quilt happy now! Hooray!
This lady is great at showing what to do in quilting your quilts step by step I will be watching out for more of her totorial Lind from Scotland
I learned so much from this video! I am so glad I stumbled upon it yesterday! I have watched it repeatedly, taking notes along the way. So, informative, for example: the different types of thread spools and how they are wound determines how you thread your machine. There is so much more I could go on and on! Thank you, sweet child!
Glad it was helpful! you are too kind
WOW, you're like the free motion quilting Fairy! So much information and tips! Thank you very much for sharing ♥️
Not a problem!
Thank you so much. I have learnt alot from you. I have wanted to learn FMQ for such a long long time. I'm very greatful. You walk through each technique at my level lol.
I m so glad! welcome to FMQ!
First timer! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Thanks very much for such a wonderful and information loaded tutorial, Jess
This was a wonderful FMQ starter video. She is clear and easy to follow as well a pleasant to listen to.
I’ve been sewing forever
Great tutorial on adjusting speed and length
Thank you!
Very good tutorial. She stays on subject, flows from one point to the next, explains thoroughly, demonstrates well, and sums up the main points at the end. Excellent teacher.
Thank you so much!
I’m so glad I found you. I have been renting time on a long arm. Gets expensive. I have a Viking machine also but have been afraid to try it on bigger projects. After watching this video, I’m now excited to try it on my machine. I look forward to more of your videos.
Yay wonderful!!
Outstanding video! Thanks Lauren, it's so encouraging to see young women like yourself learning and teaching quilting.
Thank you!
Very informative and I’m looking forward to following you. Thank you
Wow thanks!!! You made me fill so much better about my next quilt project!!!❤️❤️❤️
Lauren, Thank you for all this wonderful information. My favorite tip was "stop and think". I've been following many of your tips and they are all very helpful.
Thank you! I'm so glad its helpful
Thanks Karen for the valuable info. I’m a new quilter and will use all these tips as I continue to gain experience. Love your tutorials. 😍❤️
Thank you. There are more videos and classes on my website on boldnotionquilting.com as well!
Great tips. Life savers, really. I have been sewing for decades and was having some issues when I got to the quilting part on my art quilts. Thank you!
Thanks for watching
What a brilliant tutorial. Many, many thanks this was so interesting.
wow your amazing I really enjoy all your tips , silicone ,gloves , the plexiglass which I never thought of . Im just a hobby sew guy LOL but this video was so helpful thanks for post an awesome video Joe from California ..
Thank you SO much! I just recently got a very nice Broher machine and your tips will definitely help me! I have not done much sewing before, so I am xcited to get started, and I will be making small art quilts.
What a wonderful presentation! Your knowledge and experience obviously allow you to provide us with a down-to-earth delivery, with great volume, and a very pleasant voice which makes it easy to stay with you for the duration. I have started watching several instructional quilting videos and have soon become discouraged by the poor voice recording, annoying music, or blurred images. I have subscribed to your channel and will be watching more of your instruction. A great job!
Thank you so much!
One of the BEST videos I’ve seen. Great voice tone, clear instructions, and excellent camera views. Really great! I absolutely love quilting! Beginner 🌻
Wow, thanks! I am so glad this was helpful
I am getting ready to quilt some table runners for Thanksgiving. I have only done straight line quilting. I want to learn free motion quilting on a domestic machine. Thank you for a very informative video. I really enjoyed it.
Table runner tutorial
This was a great tutorial. You spoke about many things and aspects of FMQ that others never even brought up. The only thing that I feel like I would like to have heard is about thread selection specifically for the quilting component and how different thread affects the out come. I will definitely be back for more. Great job.!
Thank you!
Thank you for your tips! This video was perfect for me since I am trying my first quilt soon :-D Am already excited!
Thank you. It's so nice to find a video for us domestic machine quilters. Would love to see more of these for this group.
Domestic is super hard to film but I'm working on some sitdown tutorials on my midarm might that work?
Yes!
Wow, such a thorough, clear set of instructions. Thanks. I've been practicing free motion quilting after a hiatus. This helps so much.
I am so glad to hear it!
Thanks so much for your tips! I hadn't seen you or your site and I'm happy I found you. Some teachers just are better with certain kind of students, that's as easy as it can be. I think I learned more from you in this one video that in the whole time I've been looking for some answers to questions. Thank you so much, I will be following you regularly & quilting with much more joy!
This is so wonderful!
Nicely done! Some awesome tips! You are a great instructor. Thank you for sharing your knowledge
You are beautiful and quite the teacher. So calm and methodical. I have not yet begun just got a foot for my old old kenmore and hoping I can find my inner quilter. My mom was an expert seamstress from small to huge drapes so I think its in my dna, fiber arts sure are. I really appreciate your style and beauty, ceiling hooks idea is great and all the nuances. Thanx.
So wonderful thank you for joining!
Best FMQ video I’ve found. I have struggled for a year and finally gave up!! These tips make me want to try again!!!
lorie posey thays wonderful! I am so glad! Feel free to share some quilting with us on our facebook group : free motion quilt along
Great video and many good suggestions! I will watch more of your videos!
I'm just starting out, a ton of helpful hints that make so much sense. however I don't a setting for free motion quilting on my machine (have a very basic machine). I have been buying t part at a time so I can start free motion, does this mean I can't do the free motion since i dont have the setting?
Thank you for the wonderful, "good sense", instruction, tips, and --for me--the pep talk. I'd given up ever being able to FMQ except for fun on throw away things. You've given me a little hope and a more helpful plan for the plain old logistics that's been lacking to this point. Maybe, after all, this Grammy will be able to leave some pretty things for my family that come not only from the heart but hopefully through better trained hands and fingers. Bless you!😊
Aww.. dont throw your things away ! Your family will cherish them when you're gone and wont have a negative thought about it
Thankyou for sharing your tutorial - best one for beginners I have ever seen explaining what to do with shorter stitch lengths etc... .xx - I really appreciate your video.xx
thank you! feel free to share with friends!
I am well past this point but I would've given anything to know the tips and tricks way back when. You are a fabulous teacher!! I am sharing your vids with my neighbor who is just learning to freemotion quilt. Thank you!!!!!
Thank you so much for the kind compliment! And thank you for sharing!
Thanks Lauren! A lot of good tips in your video. I am about to "dive" into Free-Motion Quilting after a LONG break! ❤❤❤
Great instruction and tips- thanks so much for your generous teaching!
You did a good job in giving instructions and tips.
I love the Santoro gorjus panels! I especially enjoyed seeing how you quilted them!
Wow. Awesome. Really good learning video. I have a long arm and you gave great advice on how I can handle stitch regulated. I have the problem of listening to the speed of the machine going faster and slower and my stitching was not smooth. You made the suggestion of head phones and listening to music or whatever so not to hear the machine. WOW . I learn something new every day. Thank you. I will try that.
So glad I could help!
Thank you, fantastic tutorial, you make it look so easy, I cant wait to get started :-)
These are seriously the best tips I have heard for free motion quilting .
I'm not exactly a beginner anymore, but this is very helpful and thorough for anyone just starting out. I still learned some things and I think that's what it's all about. Great job!
wonderful! if you lean just one thing fom any class or tutorial it was well worth the time and or money spent to watch it! I agree wholeheartedly!
Best free motion video I watched. You gave import information on thread regarding the direction the thread is spun onto the spool and simply fabulous ideas for holding up fabric.
I use a bungie to keep my electrical cord at the back of my longarm from dragging as it shuttles from left to right (I do not have one of the fancy longarms like APQS that have internal sources of power) but I never thought of managing the weight if the quilt that way.
PS I enjoy the timber of your voice!
Awesome, thank you!
I just wanted to say that watching your video was very interesting. Been sewing for a very long time and quilting for a few years. I thought all of the things in your video was helpful and some I did not know about quilting. I will be watching some more of your video. I enjoy that you are very young and so good alright at your craft. I started sewing with my mom at the age of 5 years old. but quilting only for about 6 years. However I am a firm believer that even someone who is been sewing for year or anything for years and is older can always learn something new each day. Even for young lady's than themselves. So keep up the good work and I will continue watching you helpful tips and video. God Bless you and your family.
thank you so much nancy! I'm glad I could be of help
Awesome video and you are a fantastic teacher! Thank you.
Thank you!
I have been nervous to try free motion quilting but after watching your tutorial, I went to my sewing area, put together a fat quarter sandwich and gave it a try!!!! I love the idea of trying it on a panel first as well! So excited to continue trying this!!!!
Yay I'm so glad to hear it!
Fantastic, organized, incredibly helpful and encouraging Looking forward to your classes ❤️
Yay, thank you!
Loved all the knowledge that your sharing. The education is great because I want to learn and thought your presentation was great for everyone.
great video, i've been intimidated to start free hand quilting, i picked up several good tips with the video
Helen Main wonderful please do share!
Love your simplicity & clear direction - really appreciated 😊. The clap, bungee & rolling clothes rack tip fantastic 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for your video. I have watched a lot of UA-cam videos for different techniques because I have a domestic machine and your video was so easy to follow. Some that I have watched is so monotone that they put me to sleep and they tend to use a technique that is more work than it's worth. You have a very pleasant voice and you are very easy to understand. I did subscribe and can't wait to watch more of your videos.
Thank you so much
Thank you, thank you! I don't feel so intimidated now and will give it a go!
Wahoo
Nice video Lauren! Looking forward to following your channel!
Renee Felts awesome thank you! There are other classes and tutorials available on www.boldnotionquilting.com as well as facebook.com/boldnotionquilting

New to free motion, your tips really did help, thank you.
I never knew those guidelines for placement of your spool of thread depending on how the spool is threaded! So dang interesting! Also loved the DIY on combating quilt drag!
