I have not yet learned FMQ, so only quilt with my walking foot. I find that straight line quilting (edge to edge) is easy, start with a vertical line down the middle of the quilt, then just work left and right, spacing the distance you want (I like either 1" spacing or 1/2" spacing. You can also do a lot with gentle curves, I start the same way with a center full length gently curving line, then work off that going right and left. I used this method to create the 'wood grain' quilting look on my Fancy Forest baby quilt. Here are a few other photos of simple walking foot quilting that I have done. As others have said, there are a lot of great Craftsy classes on walking foot quilting.[ATTACH=CONFIG]578094[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]578095[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]578096[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]578097[/ATTACH]
