FMQ on domestic
 
I love watching the interviews of Best of Show designers. I always pick up a new technique or design idea from these brilliantly talented people. The attached link is a winner from a few years ago and her quilt is absolutely stunning and so personal. I would love to sit and sew with her...I just love her... Anywhoo...her approach and technique to FMQ'ing a large quilt on a domestic machine is ingenious and one I never heard of before..tho others may have. If you don't want to learn about her quilt and watch the whole thing, speed forward to the 7:41 mark where she talks about the quilting process. I am so gonna try this...

That's so logical! I'd never imagine it on my own - thanks for sharing!! What an *amazing* quilt she made!

Very interesting.

Wow! What a fabulous quilt! And the way she quilted it with the batting removed from each side is so smart!

Very fascinating! Marti Michell has a Craftsy class (now Bluprint) and a book on this method too. I definitely want to try it myself!

Yes, she does. She talks about this technique. I love her Quilting in Sections book. I allowed me to FMQ a king sized quilt on my 20+ year old Bernina with a tiny throat space.

I love the story of her quilt, so many thoughts in making it and beautiful quilt.
I bought Marti Michell's book and I do like cashs_mom now :king sized quilt, and my tiny throat space old sewing machine. A least, this way it is manageable!

That's a beautiful quilt and story. I've tried quilting with taking the batting out then hand stitching it back, to me, it was more of a hassle.

This quilter's work -- mostly art quilts -- was on exhibit locally recently, and a friend and I attended. Her quilts are absolutely beautiful and impeccably made!
