FMQ= Free Motion Quilting
Plus shorten stitch length too....Easier to tear...
When you are doing FMQ your feed dogs are down, so you control the stitch length. If you do it over paper you have to aim for tiny stitches so you can peel the paper easier. The problem, if you make a mistake tiny stitches are very hard to remove. Practice on something else before you try it on your quilt.
