This is probably a dumb question, but I really need to know. What did you do to make your stitching look like hand quilting? By that I mean, one stitch showing and then space before you see the thread of the next stitch. Is that a special setting on your machine?

Thanks for any tips anyone can give me.

I just got a walking foot, and if I can do something else with it, besides SID, I would really love to learn it.
I think my "Hand Stitch" look came from the tension being off just a little. I had to use the magnifying glass to see it, but the bottom was a bit loose so it must have pulled the top thread too tight = and that made it look like a space. It the big picture it doesn't look any different.
