I just bought the Janome 11000...can you explain to me how to do what you're talking about? Haven't had machine long but FMQ is difficult for me. I do practice and have done a few projects but getting tension right and keeping stitches even and design balanced is hard for me.
do you have the quilting upgrade? it comes with a large magnetic hoop. watch the video with marie osmond about quilting on janomi's site "janomi america" . take a class from your dealer if you can
