Free Motion Sewing on a Regular Sewing Machine

- You don't need a special machine or tools to do basic free motion sewing. Many home machines are capable of doing it and it can create really cool looks such as outlining patterns, sewing unique designs or even doing monogramming. With free motion sewing, you can sew in any direction and this video shows you how.

AN EMBROIDERY HOOP!!!!!!!! I've been sewing and unpicking for days because my single layer of fabric keeps bunching. Thank you so much!
also use fusible interfacing
For those without a special foot to use for free motion - You can use a "darning foot" as these are readily available for most home sewing machines. There are even some DIY versions using coiled wire. Their purpose is to keep the fabric from lifting so much on the upstroke of the needle. Generally, generic sets of feet have a "darning foot", "embroidery foot" or a "quilting foot", as this accessory has several names. Also check with suppliers for your make/model of machine.
Practice on paper, first! Trace simple designs from children's coloring books. (Stack several sheets of paper, if needed.) You can do this with or without threading your machine. Your goal here is to learn how to coordinate your hand movements with the motion of the needle. If you machine allows, set your sewing speed on the slowest setting. GENTLY move the paper. Too much force can be a needle breaker.
When you go to fabric, use stabilizer. This, IMO, is a must for single layers of fabric. You can use temporary or permanent versions. Tear away or wash away stabilizers are available. In some instances you can use plain paper - even tissue or plain newspaper weight - to help hold your fabric in position. Used on the back (wrong ) side of your fabric, tear it away after you complete your design.
Free motion quilting - practice, practice, practice. Make pot holders, place mats, sewing machine mats and covers, etc. & etc. Slow and gentle. Moving too fast and strongly is a needle breaker. It's like setting your thread tension too tight and then pulling on the thread. Often you can see the needle beginning to bend. It doesn't take much to get the needle out of alignment. It will then hit the throat plate (if it is straight stitch only) or something within the bobbin case area.
Hope this helps someone, based on what I've read in the comments.
Thanks
👍
thank u, really helpful! (:
Thank you be using your guideline! Have ordered a kit of feet for my Brother. Very Excited to try!
Great advise! Will enjoy learning this process!
I love free motion! For those having trouble, keep looking at videos and blogs and then trying some more. A sheet of paper behind your fabric can make a huge difference as well. Tear away when done.
My mum would always do this and, it worked for her :)
This is how my dad has taught me to do this! I'm glad he isn't the only one. It's difficult but I think I just need practice.
the most straight forward tutorial video ever ! loved this! Will B trying embroider soon.
Fantastic! I knew there must be a way and you've nailed it. Thank you xx
Never knew I needed this video till now thank you!!’
all my attempts in doing that were a disaster with many many broken needles and tangled threads
lilica1983 well one thing she did not mention which I'm going to comment on is that you want to keep your Stitch length at zero.
And definitely don't move too fast. There are a lot of other really good tutorials out there on free motion quilting.
It's a combination of how you move your Fabric and how much gas you give the pedal. It's Tricky that's for sure but once you get the hang of it you'll wonder G why was that so hard?
Very useful video. Gives me a bit more confidence. Thank you!
My dear Toba I hope I'm spelling your name right. You forgot to mention to keep your Stitch length at zero when you're doing the free motion sewing. And.....
I stumbled upon a Blog because as you know Google knows everything about you and it was about free motion quilting without the foot and in that blog she mentioned you must keep your Stitch length at zero when you don't have a special foot.
When I tried it I had so much more success than before so it's a combination of watching your video knowing that I could just take the foot off which I didn't know I could and then her blog.
One thing I want to let everybody know in case they read all of these comments is that Schmetz (and I hope I'm spelling that name correctly) makes a spring needle which is totally what I am going to buy because my machine is so old it is hard to find a free motion quilting foot for it, actually it just doesn't exist.
If you let down the feed dogs, you don't have to put the stitch length to zero.
If the feed dog is down , the stitch length setting is disengaged so the setting has no effect.
Hullo I have a vintage machine please can you share which blog it was
@@Sewcreativebykathy oh gee that was two years ago I don't even remember what I did two days ago
@@benchaddict1704 I didn't even see your response till now. my old Singer sewing machine from 1994 did not have the option to lower the feed dogs
Thank you for sharing,God bless!
Brilliant tips thank you so much xx
thank-you, very helpful info
I know you love Spiegel machines. I just ran across one on Facebook, an ad for a special anniversary machine or something like that. They call it the 60609
Thanks for this. Nice clear and concise! :)
Please help, I've tried it but it didn't work, the needle didn't catch the thread from the bobbin below
Awesome Information- Thanks- Calif-
What settings did you use for the cat? Tension? Width? Length? Stitch type?
Extremely GOOD question!!
I've tired this and my thread keeps getting knotted up when the bobbin goes, help
Brilliant
Thank you, sangat membantu, sepertinya lebih mudah membordir tanpa sepatu, karena mata akan lebih fokus melihat jarum daripada memakai sepatu bordir, yang mana sering sekali ga fokus karena mata terhalang lingkaran sepatu bordir.
very nice
Great like always.
I love your videos. Thank you.
Every time I try this I wind up breaking the needles and tangling the thread. I'm supposing I'm moving the work too fast and forcing the needle out of alignment. I wish I had the patience to practice enough to master this. I lose interest before I get anywhere.
it's definitely not easy and takes a lot of patience
I would say don't try to move the fabric while the needle is down. That will of course bend the needle, which will lead to breakage. Only apply sideways force after the needle has pulled up and out of the fabric. Don't try to apply constant force at all times. Just start/stop on the movement, with stop every time the needle is in the fabric. It's the same thing the machine itself does during normal sewing. It doesn't try to move the fabric during a stitch, only after.
Or You Can Stitch Zigzag?
It hardly ever catches my bobbin. I've tried everything as suggested but just can't get more than a few stitches to hold.
weird. :( If it does it to all type of stitches, I'd suggest taking it to a professional for a machine maintenance.
@@ProfessorPincushion I think it's because I missed the stabilizer part, doh! I've since seen my mistake and it's now working. I also bought a quilting foot.
@@ArcanePath360 Can you explain what you mean about the stabilizer part? I'm having the same trouble you were and don't understand...
wow! thank you so much
Good tutorial , how can make leaves and flowers through free
Motion embroidery in a fine and neat way is it needs spring needle
For free motion fine embroidery
I have been wanting to purchase a (hopefully low price) sewing machine that will do free motion stitching. I look at everything about a potential machine that is available and never see anything about being able to drop the feed dogs or see the term 'free motion stitching' in any of the info available, do you have suggestions of either what to look for in a potential machine or do you just have any recommendations for a name of one ? I will basically be using it for this application. I have been looking off and on for a couple of years, then give up. Then I saw your video and thought you may have advice, thank you, Tami
I purchased a Brother Quilting 9015 for $200, at Walmart. It has the lowering feed , several feet and instruction booklet . It also has 100 embroidery stiches and alphabet.
I absolutely love it. I have done free motion quilting, embroidery on placemats and lots of other projects.
thank you
Hi...how do u put the dog feed(teeth) inside when u put darning plate?
Thank you
Mam bobin thread is not coming up plzzz tell me wat to do
FREE SEWING
Embroidering by hand is much easier. Trust me.
yeah, it's ok anyway to test machine free motion specially in large surfaces
guys anybody know which needle size would be best to do embroidery? I'm planning on monogram one to sign my works and going to embroidery in a not too thick/thin, a little stretchy cotton fabric. please do advise me.. and thank you v much in advance (:
How to control satin stitch widths while embroidering on a home sewing machine
I want to make an embroidery patch and I have a sewing machine, but I need to learn how to work it first lol
hmmm....that's usually made with an embroidery machine, but you can definitely embroider a patch by hand, it'll just take you some time. And then you can use your sewing machine to sew it on
Which number of needle we can use plz tell me??
It depends on the type of fabric. If you're using a regular quilter's type cotton, you can just use a universal 80/20
Sorry, but what are feed dogs? I'm ready to upgrade my newb machine, and want it to do everything but buy me dinner.🤣 I don't want to have to upgrade again in 6 months. I'd REALLY love some suggestions My budget's $500-600.00. Will that be enough for the machine and all the extra feet and do-dads
feed dogs is that metal zig-zag teeth that help move your fabric when sewing.
@@apsara3105 Thank you SO much!
SWEET QUILTING ALL DAY FOR ME!!!!!!
My machine is usha janine allure
I don't know feeddog settings
not all machines have the capability to put down the feeddogs. You'll have to consult your machine's manual. If you don't have one, search online. A lot of times you can find manuals online.
Is it a regular machine!?!?😎
How is that loop called please?
the holder? it's a wooden embroidery hoop
machine name & model
🙂👍
The needle went into my thumb nail 😭😡
I had forgotten to put the presser foot down, it isn’t your fault. You told us to do so.
👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🙏🏻💖

Wow. This looks so bad. I've never embroidered anything and even i know you should use a hoop.
not good
