As a perfectionist, I have trouble letting go and just being free with my quilting. I think we all see such intimidatingly perfect quilting in show quilts but they are often done by a computerised machine or by a quilting expert who has several years of practice. It is foolish for us to compare our quilting with those, but it's a natural inclination. I tell myself that the purpose of quilting is to hold the layers together. As long as it stays together, it's good enough. Thanks for all your wonderful videos.

Oh so right. After about 2 yrs of playing quiltmaking, I was at a guild where a mate was showing off her FIRST quilt. It REALLY was perfect. Turned out to be a good thing. I never fret bc I know it's not my forte and also it's highly unlikely I'll live long enough to make it mine. So I make quilts w themes like 50th anniv of Apollo and Woodstock and nobody looks for matched corners !😁

I love the quilting part best even though it's hard on my body due to osteoporosis. I can't free motion or do ruler work but I have machines w hundreds of stitches & I just got an embroidery machine so I make patterns w decorative stitches,, add embroidery and applique. It's all so fun and my quilts are always interesting to see even though they aren't perfectly put together. Thanks for the vids. I learn a lot, esp since I don't know all the right ways before I start and bc you always say why things dont work.

What a breath of fresh air!!! I've been watching lots of videos on machine quilting, but when I tried, it wasn't good! Your ideas for quilt patterns look like a great in between: between regular sewing and free-range quilting (I like to call it that!) I've sewn for years so am really tied to a presser foot and the feed dogs! I think I can actually do what you do in your first several designs (I think in the walking foot section; I've used a walking foot quite a lot). Thank you for making this seem so doable!!!

Oh my goodness I have usually done stitch in the ditch than I did quarter inch to half inch size of the seams. But I have found that doing diagonal lines is better for me. My quilt doesn’t come out as wrinkly or punchy. When I use straight lines, it doesn’t look as nice. I’m not going for perfection. I just want to get it done! I like the options you have shown me here. Why have I not seen you before?

I’ve found a lovely way to use batik fabrics. I’m presently making a quick quilt with 10 inch squares. So some are batik and some are white and some are a pale coloured linen. I find batik next to batik can either be too much or they actually look dull. I’m putting my 10 inch squares in a diagonal pattern going down. Ive noticed that using white and pale linen makes the batik (and I’m using different ones) really sing out. Each batik square looks like a jewel! Of course it’s all a matter of preference! I haven’t decided on the back or after quilt yet!

Thanks for this, like others love your videos and have been so helpful. I am finishing a quilt with a top (flimsy) made 5 yrs ago. With your guidance have made an afterquilt for the back and will use your wide binding tips. Had lots of problems with the quilting, uneven stitch length as well as wonky. Realised it is due to the thread not Rolling off my large cone. I have tried in a cup, a can, with and without the separate spool holder , using a safety pin on the machine spool. The only thing that works is stopping regularly and pulling up the thread manually. If anyone has other tips I’m listening. It looks like you don’t use your table flatbed but do use an extension around your machine.I don’t have either so feeding the quilt is awkward. I want to replace my trestle-table with a sewing table, debating IKEA or investing in a sewing cabinet. Any thoughts welcome. Thanks again Karen , love your work. 🙏

As always such a great video Karen. I’ve quilted a few of my own quilts when I started a few years ago, all but one of them were queen sized quilts. Realized that this step was my least favourite in the process. I then moved onto having a long arm artist take over that step for me. This past week I finished up a baby quilt that I quilted myself and actually really enjoyed the process. My new plan moving forward, quilt small quilts myself to build my skill level and have a long armer continue to quilt my large quilts until (if ever) I feel ready for that challenge again. The techniques in the video will be added to the growing list of Karen Lessons I’ve been applying to my quilting obsession🌸

Your advice on pacing, correcting your posture, taking breaks and stretching is very valid whether I'm sewing on my machine or quilting on a frame. It's also good advice for working at a computer. Your way of doing small elongated loops is one I'm going to try on the quilt I currently have on my frame. I have a narrow boarder and hadn't decided how to quilt it. I quilting each block in the top individually working from center out. When I reach my border, I'll have one long line that I can quilt using a flowing quilt pattern. So the up down loop pattern I think will work. I'm going to draw it out on graph paper this afternoon and then transfer it to a template. Thanks for the idea. I also like the small/large/small elongated loop pattern. They sort of look like little crowns. Another good video to your credit, Karen. I love spending time with you.

I have used various quilt as you go methods, from sashing, rag quilt and more recently assembling in 12" strips quilting while quilting as the same time. I am ready to try something new. Maybe I should bring in a couple of big folding tables and try one of your methods. TFS

Thank you! This motivates me to try my hands at free motion quilting again. I love the modern feel of the walking foot quilting but sometimes the looping movement is more appropriate for the quilt.

I would love tips/tricks for how you keep the part of your quilt you arent currently quilting from getting in the way or pulling on the sandwich disturbing your lines. Do you roll what's under the throat, or fold, or just bunch up? I am so thankful for your KZitem channel! I also really admire your attitude and encouragement that you dont have to be perfect or always do things just one way!

It really depends on the sandwich as I use all those strategies. I really have to work at not rushing. Work on a patch. Stop. Shift. Breathe then start with another patch

This is exactly the question I wanted to pose. Would love to see video demos of how to quilt a big quilt on a small domestic machine

Thanks for this. I’ve yet to make a quilt but feel more confident about the actual quilting after watching this
