Your transparent and thorough tutorial style is fantastic! I love that you pepper in details, troubleshooting and guidelines as they would pop up naturally, in the steps. So many people explain their procedure, but not their thought process. You do both. The thread color selection is a great example. You not only pick a color but share why that color might be a better choice. This is so incredibly helpful as no two setups are the same. Your amazing instructions, paired with your kick-ass, empowering moxy (quilting police video, ha) made you one of my instant favs! Very happy to have stumbled upon your channel. Thanks!
Thank you for your tutorials. I have one lap quilt that’s been ready for over a year to quilt but I have been afraid to tackle it. After watching this video I think I am ready to finish it. Your videos are super easy to understand. I’m almost done with my second quilt top and will quilt that also. 🙂
I learn from every one of your videos. Thank you. I bought a Babylock- Quilters Choice- almost 15+ years ago but then started teaching, now I'm retired getting back into quilting. Sad news is I've spent weeks learning the machine again. Your videos are a blessing.
Thank you for this. I'm not very good at quilting, but i enjoy it. I haven't done it in a couple yrs, so needed a quick refresher. Love your vids- easily understandable + love your vid on things you do that drive quilting police crazy! 🦋😊
Thanks. I just bought a walking attachment and I didn’t know how to place it! So, I had registered your video and if I forget, I will look it again!! Thanks!!
Thank you, this is so helpful. I'm a beginner using my regular/basic Singer with a walking foot, thinking I was only able to quilt straightline stitches. I will try curvy now. I'm hoping I can buy the quilting machine I want and really take off with free motion quilting.
What kind of thread to you use? Weight? An overhead camera would be helpful to see the full effect of the wavy line quilting. I love your positive encouragement.
Hello! We covered this in the video about what you need to get started, but I use 50wt Aurifil thread when quilting on my home sewing machine.

@@QuiltAddictsAnonymous Thank you! Given that anyone can find any video (like me) without knowing there was a previous video, it bears repeating. Thanks for letting me know! I will check it out.
Thank you for the whole set of tutorials, I want to start quilting and it gave me very good insight and tips. You've earned yourself another follower :) God bless!
Thank you so much. I'm a beginner and have been stuck- afraid to take the leap to quilt. This tutorial is very clear and helpful. What should you do if you do get a pleat caught up when you're quilting? I am good at ripping, lol, but how do you fix it?
Can anyone explain to me what is the point of backstitching at the start and end of the row if you are starting several inches from the edge of the quilt top? All those backstitches will be trimmed off when you square up the quilt!
hi there, i am a beginner quilter and into this for the last 5 mths now and each time i see results of getting better and better at things. The only thing i am having trouble with after basting is bunching/pleating in spots at times. I smooth everything out as best as possible but it is the bunching especially around the centre of a continuous square throw. how do i eliminate that. This happens even when using the walking foot.
Hi, I have a question please. If I want to sew a big blanket like 2 meters x 2 meters, how can I cut and sew the lining fabric behind blanket ? Because in shop it makes 140 cm larger.
Great video. Want to practice on blocks but can’t figure out how to take the leap. If I am doing a star block or log cabin do you just quilt over the pattern. I have always just tied or sent my quilts out but don’t care for stippling? I like minimal quilting not filled in but really don’t know where to start.
I'm an intermediate quilter, I do all my own work from cutting to binding. For what it's worth, I quilt over the block, the pattern, the star, etc. I really like the look!
Wish I’d seen this when I started! I have done straight lines and whilst they look Ok on top they don’t look so great on the backing, I’m definitely doing wavy lines next time.
I am fairly new at this and I am kind of confused on how you got the bobbin thread up, can you explain it to me again. I love these videos, thank for the help
We actually recently did an entire masterclass on free motion quilting that answers this question and many more! Check it out! ua-cam.com/play/PL-noqoeaGWzZ_CgNlUPpphcC3_xjYAfdm.html
In the NO MUSIC playlist, the video that explains creating the quilt sandwich is missing... So if you got to 5:17 in this video and were wondering what you missed, you'll need to watch this one with music: ua-cam.com/video/AE1vEbjQuTE/v-deo.html
Her makeup on this video really looks good! It brings out her beauty very nicely. The bright red eyeshadow on another video was too much. Regardless, all of her videos are helpful! She gives good advice!! New subscriber here!
When I sew with my walking foot my needle sometimes falls out. Whether I’m going fast or slow. I even make sure the needle is screwed in tight before I start. Does that ever happen to you?
I've had that happen. With all the movement going on the screw simply loosens over time. Plus you have a lever connected to the screw that holds in the needle. Its just shaking it over time.
I love how all the sewing machine parts have been likened to body parts, like humans and animals have. So, the part you unscrewed from the shank (which could be called the "shin," lol) is called the "ankle." You removed the ankle in order to attach the Walking Foot, which has its own ankle, as part of the entire foot piece. There you go, Sweetie--more machine vocabulary, as if you needed any more help--i enjoy your videos very much!
This is the first video I have seen where she is working on an actual quilt, not a small square! Wonderful, and helpful.
Oooo ok

You explain things so well. I taught public school for almost 40 years. I use the wavy (serpentine) lines frequently.

Awesome i need this thank you Feb 5 from Newfoundland Canada
Thanks. I just bought a walking attachment and I didn’t know how to place it! So, I had registered your video and if I forget, I will look it again!! Thanks!!
In the first two minutes Stephanie goes over how to attach the walking foot!
Very, very well done tutorial!!!
Good demonstration. I enjoy you showing s how to do things. Thank you

Just don't do it then.
OMG!!!!
Do you have pointers on how to prevent tucks on the back while quilting?

What stitch length do you recommend for this kind of machine quilting? Thank you for the tips.

Before this video, do you have a video about how to correctly pin the layers?
Doesn't appear to be one without music, but found this one in the earlier playlist (with music): ua-cam.com/video/AE1vEbjQuTE/v-deo.html
Do you start in middle of quilt or one of ends?
It's a personal preference but usually at one of the ends.
What stitch length did you start with?
What if you can not sew straight the curl lines looks tempting to do

For a lap quilt how far apart should i have my line
Depends on your batting requirements it could carry from 3 to 9 inches. Check you package for details.0
When I have squares I normally quilt from corner to corner😜

What size is your quilt?
I couldn’t see your lines at all on your practice piece.
Would be good to do overhead angle to see your lines quilted and color thread.
When I sew with my walking foot my needle sometimes falls out. Whether I’m going fast or slow. I even make sure the needle is screwed in tight before I start. Does that ever happen to you?
I would have that checked out by your local repair shop. It is definitely not normal.
Some needles have a flat side. Check snd that is it turn it around and tighten, try again.
I've had that happen. With all the movement going on the screw simply loosens over time. Plus you have a lever connected to the screw that holds in the needle. Its just shaking it over time.
Thank you. It's good to know I'm not alone in this situation. @@BarbarasGonnaDoThis

For a tutorial it would be easier to see your quilting on a more solid fabric. Also your camera angle makes it hard to see results.
