Stitcher's Garden Advice
 

I'm just going to start the BOM Stitcher's Garden. I would like to know of any helpful hints from those who have participated in this project. Experience is the best teacher and would appreciate any and all things that you can advise. This is the most expensive quilt that I have attempted. Are all the extra feet necessary? Thanks a bunch. On a limited budget.

I am not familiar with this BOM, can you please share the link? It sounds interesting.
Thank you

Here's one version of this pattern at www.moores-sew.com :

what extra feet, it looks applique, all you should need is an open toe foot, and yes it does make a difference in how the satin stitch looks, I took a happy feet class and while a zigzag foot can do the job and open toe does make the stitching look nicer

That is very interesting to know. Where did you take this class? I haven't taken any classes to get to know my machine,s feet yet....shame on me I know and been quilting for three years

This BOM looks like something that has been designed to help you learn about all the special stitches & feet on your machine. You could always make it plainer if you like, but what fun to learn all about your machine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyJM3WnPUEs
