[quote=sewingladydi]I've just started trying free motion. With my free motion foot, my stitches are not consistent. And with my walking foot, it's hard to see where I'm supposed to be stitching.
When fmq besure to wear the gloves with the nubbies on the face. They help you grip the layers as well as control the flow. And unlike when we piece and the fabric moves away from you, when fmq, the quilted section is pulled toward your lap so you can see where you need to go next.
And yes, it does take practice. Prepare a "play" sample and fmq using white or lighter thread. Later you can use the same sample and fmq using a darker thread.
