I'm loving this series! For someone who has never quilted before, your instructions are clear and not overwhelming. These are the basic instructions I needed to learn and you're doing a great job showing me!
Thank you so much for your comment! This is so encouraging. I feel like I talk way too much but there's just so much information to share lol. I appreciate you watching!
@@southernsewingco you’re doing a great job and you have no idea how helpful you’ve been! You have a gift of teaching for sure!
You are so wonderful, thank you!
Love love this series!! Looking forward to many more 😍
Thank you!! I am too!
Thank you for the detailed explanation. ❤ im going to start trying 🥰
Go girl! I’m here if you need anything!
Greetings from Canada . What a great video. FMQ terrifies me. I have been doing charity quilts using my walking foot and the serpentine stitch. They turn out wonderfully but Would love to learn to stipple. I will rewatch this again and set aside some time to practice and be patient with myself. Thanks for sharing this with us. I have subscribed and look forward to more content.
Thank you for your comment! That’s awesome that you’re doing the charity quilts! I hope the video helps you to learn stippling. I also hope to create a more in-depth series for FMQ in the future! Let me know if I can help anymore 😀
Thanks so much. Gotta go quilt....@@southernsewingco
Hi, Ashley. Thank you for the videos. I am new to quilting and just found your channel. Question: What kind of presser foot pressure adjustments do you have to make with the free motion, walking, and regular sewing feet? Thanks!
Welcome!! I'm so glad you found me! To be honest, I rarely mess with the presser foot pressure. The only time I've messed with it was when using a walking foot when I noticed that my machine was moving around kind of squirrely (if that makes sense lol). In this case, I adjusted it a little more so it held my quilt together a little better and didn't let it bounce around so much! For FMQ, I've never seen this as an issue though. I hope this helps!
Your video just popped up in my feed. What great tips and easy to see sewing. I will follow and watch the entire series, but when you FMQ a quilt, do you start in the corner as you do on the sample shown? Thanks
I’m so glad you found me! That’s a great question that I didn’t go over, and I’m glad you pointed that out! I typically start in the corner but I know other quilters that start in the middle. I’ve just always started in the corner so it’s kind of a habit at this point but no particular reason other than that. You’ll have to let me know what you think about the series!
@@southernsewingco I have been practicing FMQ but need to graduate to a quilt. I think starting in a corner will be easier. Also. Loved how you focused on completing the circle, keeping the spacing pleasing, etc. I look forward to watching your series/content.
Some do start in the middle with the mentality that the Quilt won’t ever be harder than it is right then. You could probably try a smaller maybe baby quilt, as those are lighter and easier to move around! You got this! Thank you for taking the time to watch these videos. It means so much
