I found that very helpful when I fist started fm quilting. I have tried the machines with the stitch regulators and don't like them.

Some days I get tired of wanting all the stuff we think we need ... I am kinda "passable" with my own two hands. And despite what the books tell you, I go relatively slowly. Piked up Diane Gaudynsky's book and that's what she says also. "Pinch" a little bit of fabric/quilt/batting at a time with right hand, do it, then stop, then repinch, etc. Good luck.Elaine Adairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14664504842156046995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18204679.post-49923827323301902062007-07-18T08:11:00.000-07:002007-07-18T08:11:00.000-07:00Love the wonky log cabins you have going.

I love the look of that wonky log cabin- love all the colours! what fun.<BR/>I FM'd around the border for SIL's quilt, & I found it very tiring, & a real learning curve. I need much more practise, & probably some good pointers.

I have a few started myself. Now you will spur me on to finish them by watching yours.<BR/>As far as the FM quilting goes, I would try a stitch regulator before buying one. I personally didn't like the feel of it.<BR/>I accidently put my bobbin in backwards (counterclockwise) once and kept breaking thread. Once I changed it, it was fine.Exuberantcolor/Wanda S Hansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00064308660138307797noreply@blogger.com
