Yes, the videos are a great help! Seeing is believing!LOL Utube has many different ones too. I just taught a friend that hand quilts how to stipple on the machine and she picked it right up. I used some scrap fabrics sandwiched w/batting and had her drop the feed dogs w/open toe on the machine..then think like a puzzle. Actually for a large quilt, you could use those big puzzle piece(s) as a guide till you get the hand of it. You just meander around and work your way back. You will love this for it is so much fun! Don't forget to breathe and put some calming music on. Keep us posted on your progress over there! Skeat
*Who did learn a tid-bit to use a marker, hold it upright and then meander on a magazine that you are going to recycle anyways. Flip the page and keep going to get the feel of it. I learned that
at: www.allpeoplequilt.com there on a free video too.
