Marti Michel has a great book showing many different methods to use.

Beautiful quilt. Well done.
|
Great looking quilt. I love the colors. You did good.
|
you did a great job on that for a first time FMQ.. Hope mine comes out that nice.
|
You did a lovely job.
|
Guess that's why I pretty much go with straight stitch designs and forget all the pretty flowers and feathers. I'd sure like to learn on a LA so I could do that fancy quilting, but not on the regular or mid arm machine I have.
Really nice Love the pattern and the colors. |
It's beautiful for the first try. I haven't done FMQ yet, but know mine won't be half as good.

Very nicely done.

Good job. There are always errors if you look hard enough, so don't do that."perfection is highly over-rated", says my friend at the LQS. YOU are not a machine.
Nobody told me that it was impossible until after I had quilted about a dozen quilts from twin to king sized on my home machine. It's much easier now that I have a Janome 6600, which has much tighter control than the Bernina I stasrted with and also lock stitches, pulls the thread to the back and cuts it. That's not to mention the greater depth, which is why I went with Janome in the first place. |
It looks great! Good Job!
