scrunch dont roll, drink wine, listen to soft music, dont yell at the cat, hands and feet work together, there is no brake, no delete button,...... so many rules. I am learning such a deep appreciation for quilters you could never imagine. there was a time when I though. " oh heck, I could do that" hahahahah boy was I silly. It takes a lot of pratice, patience, and grit.... and wine. hahahah

Double Wedding Ring :)

Yup a glass of wine helps a lot and enjoy it, of course you can do anything you want to why not

To answer one of your questions. Yes, you can do other than stitch in the ditch with the walking foot. Get a stencil that has long curves or straight lines in the motif. Suggest checking the on line catalog for The Stencil Co. www.quiltingstencils.com I looked thru their catalog and suggest Pinweel and Square (SC-015) or in the Double Wedding Ring section the Egg and Dart or perhaps Double Pinwheel are possibilities. I have become interested in using the walking foot for much more than in the ditch and straight line quilting.

DWR = double wedding ring (quilt pattern).

LMB - love to hear how it comes out (post pictures!!!). I have an almost king size top I am needing to quilt - and plan to do it myself as well. I have never quilted more than a twin size. I was also thinking of cutting the batting into 3rds - but as with anything new, I am procrastinating! I guess I need to keep repeating - I can do it, I can do it. One day I am convinced I can do it, the next - worried I can't.

What a great idea! Thanks for the wonderful info. @LMB: DWR=Double Wedding Ring

I would imagine you can use you walking foot on the curves since they are gentle curves
