I just watched a tv show what highlighted a machine for FMQ that wasn't a LA. LAs take up too much room but the machine shown has the regulated stitches so you can move the fabric slow or fast but the stitches are the same length. Is that the machine you bought??? I'm so excited for you. I'm thinking I need to go see one of those.

Anyway, back to your question. I think FMQ is just a matter of practice, practice, practice. You will get better once you get the 'feel' of the fabric and machine. I'm sure there are some tips out there (I watched a FMQ video on utube that helped me) but there's not a better teacher than experience. Just go for it.... on a practice sandwich first.... and good luck. We want to experience the ride with you..... at least I want to... I really like the idea of this machine.
