I get so many questions about free motion quilting for beginners on a regular sewing machine! I want to have all your free motion quilting or fmq tutorial questions here in an easy to find place, so I've made this short series to help you learn everything you need to know for free motion quilting even if you have never done it before! In this video, I'll show you what you need to get started, how to baste your quilt the easy way (no crawling on the floor!) and how to set up your machine.

Be sure to subscribe as I'll be following this video up with free motion quilting design essentials and a video to help you expand your quilting adventures into feathers, rulerwork, and learning more designs! This will be a short 3 video series I had originally planned as a class/zoom workshop but I'm putting it all here for free instead!

*I believe I misspoke about the color band on the needle. The pink I pointed out is actually the size designation color rather than the type of needle color. All the information on needle sizes & types and the corresponding colors is all correct in the schmetz guide here: [ Ссылка ]
