I have an HQ 16 sitdown machine. It is facing this way. It is wonderful the space I have for my arms while doing free motion quilting.

I can see FMQ with it turned but Piecing? I cannot get my head wrapped around that at all.

Doh! What a great idea. I will try it with my FW as the other machine is nested in a table and I don't want to disturb it. What a great concept!

"I will have to try this. Only hope my pee brain can wrap itself around this and change directions."

I can't get the piecing part either. They must have used a hopping/darning foot when they pieced that way. (I'm just guessing.) :roll:
