She also has a class on fmq'ing at craftsy. I took it and it is fun to watch her do all of the neat designs.
The truth is, you have to set up your machine and just do it to learn. It will get easier and easier as you go. I sometimes use many different quilting ways in a quilt. Some stitch in the ditch, some echo and also marked designs along with the free motion fillers. I have some built ins on the bernina's and I want to try them out. It is just a matter of time and courage.. LOL!
