FULL PLAYLIST of THIS QUILT ALONG here: • Free Motion Quilt Alon...
Q: My stitches are skipping BIG?
A: Could be many things. Here are some major culprits.
1. Try a new needle.
2. Is needle sitting up "snug" where it should be?
3. I use a topstitch 80/12 needle(good % of quilters use this but it's not the only option of course).
4. Thread -try a dif thread (thread does go bad).
5. A lot of quilters use cotton thread but I personally use "Superior Polyester Thread" (cotton "drags" in my machine).
6. Adjust your foot height- you don't want it smashing your fabric/but you don't want it too high either....just hover over fabric.
7. Your hand speed and foot pedal speed should be in balance....slowing your hands to meet your foot speed could be the problem.
8. If your fabrics are really thick then this could cause skipping...try going at a "snail pace" for a minute and see if the skipping stops..if so then that is the reason.
Q: How much fabric do I need for sashing?
A: I'm thinking no more than 1.5 -2 yards for sashing and binding ✅ 5 yards for the front and 5 yards for the back✅ For batting I bought a "full" size package✅

Just found your series on free motion quilting. How inspiring. I saved every video. Close to finishing a quilt top. Now to practice so I can compete my quilt.
You’re a good teacher. Love your videos.
I am SO impressed and excited over your tutorial! Thank you so much! I couldn’t even get beyond the sketching of a feather, let alone threading the machine to do one!😂. Your explanation toppled my brain block wall, I finally GET IT!! Woohooo!!!
You are so welcome! You can do it ❣️
I really appreciate your videos theyre down to earth and so helpful ❤
The feather heart and sunflowers look great! I will try them!
*_Have fun with them Kathy✅💝_*
It was fun to listen to while I put my feet up and grab my hand sewing. I hope you have a great day. Thank you for sharing this video.
*_You are so welcome!You have a great day as well Brenda!!!💛_*
Love love loved these 3 free motion blocks!
Thank you Glenda💛so much fun!!
I really liked the feathered heart!! Nicely done!!
Thanks Flame Shakk!!!♥️💛💕
I just loved watching your videos and plan on practicing these blocks. They look great. Thank you
Love the sunflower pattern
Thank you Pamela!🌻
Love,love,love watching you sew….so relaxing for me .❤️❤️❤️Thank you for showing me .
You are so welcome Becky💛
Thanks for all the ideas! I'm new to be FMQ and have just got to practice, practice, practice! That truly IS the only way to get better
Yep...the only way.✅ I can't wait to finish up this quilt...it will be a big accomplishment for me...🤓
You make it look so easy. And I’m getting better with my practice
*_That's awesome ...the more you practice.....the better at it you will be✅_*
Loved the heart and the flowers. Great job.
Thank you Ann 💕
Love them! I am partial to the sunflowers because I think I can do them! Just starting today! Wish me luck!
*_Awesome Gloria!!!Yay🍀_*

Really enjoyed watching you do the sunflowers - very hypnotic, very relaxing. Looking forward to having a go myself. Thank you for this great tutorial.
*_Yes you should definitely give free motion quilting a try✅It's so much fun💛_*
I have loved watching you. You have taken away fear of free motion sewing. I haven’t started yet 🤪 but have saved all of your play list. Your series is one of my new year’s goals!
*_You can do it Sandy!!!💛 YAY🥳_*
I really enjoyed watching the sunflower pattern. Looks somewhat doable for me… maybe. Thanks for the video!
*_You can totally do this Chrissy✅💛_*
So cool! Thank you..🥰🥰
You are already much better ar Free Motion Quilting than I will ever be. However, I was thinking that you (and I) could try Free Motion Quilting large Dahlia blooms. On large Dahlia bloom with a few leaves on each block. My late Mother use to grow Dahlias. Some of her Dahlias had blooms as big as dinner plates. Your quilting is beautiful. You are getting me interested in trying Free Motion Quilting again.
*_Oh I sure do hope you try it Arvetta✅I will research that flower and see what I can come up with✅_*
Loved this vid. I think I will try it!
*_Go for it Michelle...have fun!🥳_*
Like the sunflower will have to try I tend to just do straight line walking foot but really want to try free motion thanks for your help😀
*_Awesome Delwyn...have fun with it!🥳_*
I really liked all the designs :)
Thank you Collete💕
Hi Tracy, still haven't tried this yet on my new machine. I do like your flower block, that would make a cute quilting for my great granddaughter's quilt, maybe change it up with loops or swirls for a whole quilt look. Will have to practice it though. I love feathers, will have to practice that one too.
Jeanie- loops and swirls would look great!✅
❤️❤️❤️
💛💛💛
I do not free motion, but it sure looks pretty. I’ll be interested in how you sew them altogether. I had bought a big box of fabric at an estate sale years back and found white quilted blocks like these, but they are hand quilted. I had a friend tell me I had to sew them a special way to connect them, but I haven’t done it yet. So I’m hoping when you sew your blocks together it will help me get a better idea how I can sew the ones I have.
*_Christine...if you check out the first video in this series I do show you how to connect them together...it's really easy too✅💛_*
Tracy: You have A LOT more courage than I do to attempt the heart feather! IMHO it came out great, regardless of your not hitting your marks! Never seen the FMQ flowers before, but they are so very cool!!! Would be a neat way to quilt a girl's or baby girl's quilt since the flowers can be variable sizes. Can't wait to try the flowers but I'm still too afraid to try a heart feather. One day in the future.... Thank you again for another fantastic video!!!! 💗👍🏻⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ BTW: Any FMQ ideas for quilting a boy's quilt? You always have such great ideas! 🍼
*_You definitely should try the flowers Dori✅The heart feather was very challenging for me 🙃But I got through it LOL. A boy's quilt....now that's got me thinking 🤔Maybe a basketball...baseball (easy enough). You could fmq some bats and baseballs...I'll have to give it a try✅_*
I am very excited to give this fmq a go!!!! You bring it all into perspective.. here we go. ...practice, practice!!! Thank you!!!
Wonderful designs Tracy 🥰 I’ve been watching out for these but I must have missed lots as I’m sure you said blocks 20 🙁 Going to look for more 👀 to see those I’ve missed. 🇬🇧
I linked the playlist to this series at the end of the video....you can check there Glynis to see what you've missed✅
@@TheSewingChannel many thanks 👍😊🇬🇧
Hi Tracy, I forgot my plan of fqm these blocks.. My big machine is in for service right now so I’m using my feather weight so I can continue to sew, thank God I have some spares or I’d go nuts, or possibly go down the you tube rabbit hole.. 😳😬😆 I’ll probably do these on the blocks I’m making whenever I get that back. 🙃 How many ppl are making these? Isn’t it fun seeing them? Are they emailing you with them? I haven’t caught up on videos.. 😬 I know I’ve missed some from everyone I follow. Anyway, have a wonderful week. 🥰 Chris
*_Hi Chris...hopefully you get your machine back quick!!!✅ I have had some viewers send me some pics...hopefully I get more so I can post them in a video👍🏻_*
Happy Monday 😊. That was so relaxing to watch. The pieces look good and I think they came out perfect. I don't think I could do that but I might buy a motion foot and practice. I look forward to seeing you piece them in a quilt. Take care. ❤
*_Hi Anna...thank you for the kind words...it is definitely a work in progress✅_*
I just found your you tube channel and have been binge watching. Have you done more than the 21 blocks?
I lost momentum in this quilt...but I will finish it eventually❤️
I struggle so much with free motion quilting. I end up picking it all out and stippling.
Oh no. That’s a lot of work to pick it out😐
Thanks very much, very interesting. I got a same sewing machine and would like to learn this technique. What needle and thread is best for this machine please for quilting? Can I use the same thread for top and bottom? Thank you 😊
I use Superior 8/12 topstitch needle and Superior thread (So Fine)✅
@@TheSewingChannel thank you very much, I will look out for that. I am in the UK and not heard of superior brand thread. For piecing I use Mattler 100% cotton 50 thread.
Мне так мешает сама лапка, хочется чтобы она была прозрачной, но таких не существует((
я понятия не имею, что вы говорите? лол🤣
ya ponyatiya ne imeyu, chto vy govorite? lol🤣
