Realistic walking foot or FMQ video?
Does anyone know of a video for FMQ or walking foot quilting where the technique is actually demonstrated on a large quilt? It seems every video I see is done on a 20" X 20" sandwich which, of course, is quite easy to maneuver. Many of those designs look very do-able, but try them on a full size quilt and it's an entirely different story! I would like to see how someone does a beautiful FMQ or complex walking foot design while managing the bulk of a large quilt. Ideas?

That's really impressive! Beautiful work.
I always disliked the videos that show a small piece of fabric too. You can do anything on something like that. I'm going to watch the video, thanks! |

if you take the FMQA classes, all of the videos are of HollyAnne FMQing on a domestic machine (although it is one with a large throat). Here is the sampler I did in the class. It is about 50 x 60 and I did it on my Bernina with a 5.5” throat.

SuzSLO that is way cool! It looks like you quilted one block at at a time. And it was done once all the blocks were pieced, right?
I tried a rag quilt project where I used rulers to create designs on each block. I tried to "quilt as you go" using instructions from several sites. These flannel quilts did work out, but I have to admit the joining of the blocks and rows is a bit messy and sometimes requires a bit of sewing first aid. Attachment 638866 |
