I am teaching myself to free motion and use the quilting rulers and the ruler foot. I have a Janome Horizon 8200 MQ with an 11 or 12 inch harp, and love it. I am having a blast learning. Oh by the way, I used to be a die hard hand quilter. I am really enjoying the ruler quilting. Amy Johnson has excellent u-tube tutorials and classes on Craftsy. Go for it.
