I have only been quilting for a little over a year and all I have done is stitch in the ditch and a top stitching with good results, but I want to learn to FMQ. I have been reading the posts about FMQ and I am ready to try it. Thinking about it, it seems to make sense to turn the machine to have more room for your arms. Thanks to all for the great tips I have picked up reading these posts.
