I don't see it messing up timing unless your feed dogs are up and you are pulling on the fabric. If you have been doing this for a long time and your machine is fine, then I wouldn't worry about it.

It's free motion so you turn your quit every which way. Doesn't really matter where you sit, imho.
|
What kind of machine do you have? I tried to turn mine around but I can't see well enough and can't reach my buttons. I have the Janome 6600P.

I didn't know timing was in the feed dogs. I've wanted to try sideways FMQ, great idea !
|
I have my machine turned that way on the mini pini frame and I can't imagine that the timing would have anything to do with it. I love it because it is so easy to get into my Juki for the bobbin when it sits sideways.

I have only been quilting for a little over a year and all I have done is stitch in the ditch and a top stitching with good results, but I want to learn to FMQ. I have been reading the posts about FMQ and I am ready to try it. Thinking about it, it seems to make sense to turn the machine to have more room for your arms. Thanks to all for the great tips I have picked up reading these posts.

Wow I never thought of that. I learn so much here. Thanks for the great idea.
