Stippling....
#1
I just cannot get stippling, or just meandering! No matter how hard I try, my stippling comes out bunched, uneven stitches, and just looking a mess! I know just relax and let it flow.... but, even if I am slowly stitching it looks just a mess. Any ideas?

The same way you get to Carnegie Hall...Practice, Practice, Practice. It took hours of practice before I got it. Personally, I couldn't use a pattern, but it is worth a try for you. The combination of stitch speed, and fabric manipulation is the magic combination. The results are worth the frustration.

Try practicing writing your name in cursive. It is the most natural and familiar curves that we are used to. :wink:
Vary the speed of your machine, move your hands at the same speed til you find the right combo :D:D:D

I forgot to drop my feed dogs one time when I was free motion quilting and found that my stitches improved 100%. No kidding. I still used the darning foot which allowed for plenty of room to freely move the fabric. Not sure why it works, but it really truly does!
