(Luckily Sears still had a walking foot that could be used with my older machine.) I'm trying to learn how to FMQ, but I still do a lot of straight line quilting & quilting in the ditch & I couldn't do it without my walking foot. I use it to put on my binding & since I sew that on completely by machine, it would be a struggle to get through all the layers without it. And a great non-FMQ book is Foolproof Machine Quilting by Mary Mashuta.JoyceLMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09163472689755291737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7588443878645413890.post-90615518574845254792013-12-28T20:24:21.332-06:002013-12-28T20:24:21.332-06:00I've decided to straight line quilt my next co...I've decided to straight line quilt my next couple of quilts, it is a lot faster for me than FMQ is.Missy Shayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05209549470700130606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7588443878645413890.post-92171134730274094552013-12-28T19:34:33.067-06:002013-12-28T19:34:33.067-06:00Straight line quilting does look great, especially...Straight line quilting does look great, especially along both sides of a seam line.
