yes its all FMQ, i never have the feed dogs up.
i take a stitch and then move the frame about 3-4 inches and take a stitch.
i know before hand exactly where i'll be taking the basting stitches because i mark my quilt top with all my quilt designs before i load it onto my frame.
then i do my basting stitches, then i pull the rod, then i do the fancy stuff.
if you want to do an all over border to border design you don't need to baste first.
if your sewing machine has about 5-6 inches throat space you can quilt an all over design thats about 3 inches or less without ever having to stop except to change bobbin thread.
you just quilt along and when you need to advance the quilt you'll stop with needle down and move the quilt exposing new area to quilt - and off you go.
i can do an allover design for a twin size quilt in about 2-3 hours depending on the depth of the design.
