Do a search on this board and the internet for "free motion quilting". You will find too many sites to list here. Also the key to good/easy FMQ is to PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE. There is a BIG difference between walking foot and free motion foot. WF is used to do straight line stitching such as SID, diaginal lines, etc and can also be used for "gentle curves" FMQ foot is used with the feed dogs down or covered so the machine does not moves the fabric but rather you move the fabric in directions that you want and to make patterns. I do my own FMQ because I can not afford to send it out (more fabric for me). I do mostly meandering and stippling. It is not perfect but it is good enough for me
