You can do two types of quilting with your home machine. You can do straight line quilting using your walking foot. You can do free motion quilting by dropping the feed dogs and using a free motion/darning foot. It is best to practice on a muslin sandwich before attempting to quilt on a real quilt.

Muslin sandwich - A 12" - 18" square of muslin, a layer of batting (I use 100% cotton.), and another square of muslin
