BRILLIANT tutorial!! I'm 65, finally just invested in my dream machine (Bernina Q16) and have been absolutely terrified to start using it -- on my 55+ UFOs! I appreciate you :)

I have watched many free motion tutorials but I found this one the very best. You certainly have impressed me with your knowledge, expertise, teaching style and showing this free motion can definitely be fun. I can hardly wait to get back at it again! Thanks for sharing.

WOW! this would have to be the best tutorial I have seen on free motion quilting for beginners. You explain everything so well and at a steady pace. Thank you so much. 😊

I love all your videos and just ordered your purple hoop. I am 74, been sewing for over 60 years. Now am a beginner quilter. I have had my bernina since1989! I want to learn free motion quilting and your video is by far the best! I so enjoy your quilting projects and I will be using all your great suggestions for my new project! Thank you so very much!

Love how you give direction, so easy to comprehend.

You are a marvelous teacher. MORE PLEASE. This was great. Love all the tips.

I've found your suggestion of using the left foot very helpful. After 5 years of flirting with this type of quilting, I am now feeling hopeful about eventually begin able to free motion quilt. Thank you Pauline.

Oh my gosh...I never thought about tilting my machine! Thank you so much for that hint!

Outstanding tutorial by a charming instructor… top notch! ❤

What an excellent explanation of free motion quilting thanks from Ontario Canada.

Of all the free motion quilting videos I have watched, none compare to this one. You get into the physical mechanics on how to adjust the machine and the quilter. The tools you used I have never seen. I have been so frustrated trying to learn how to control the pedal and my hands. You make it look so easy. I feel I just might be able to master free motion. Thank you for making this video.

What an excellent tutorial for beginners. Takes the fear away of trying free motion embroidery

I can't thank you enough Pauline for this tutorial Using doorstops to raise the machine is ingenious as is the tip about positioning the foot pedal. I'm a leftie, so hopefully that will help! I love FMQ but am often disappointed with the results. I attended a workshop a few years ago and we were taught speed is of the essence - this is probably why I struggle I was also encouraged to use the stop/start button on the machine. It's foot pedal from now on. No more painful neck and shoulders!!

She is the best teacher I could watch her all day, and I will when I can get to my machine. We will go one step at a time.

Thank you Pauline I'm a beginner to quilting your video makes it seem easier than I thought Free motion quilting was terrifying me.I will try all your tips you gave

Your video and teaching method are fantastic. I’m so glad this popped up on my playlist. Thank you.

I am so glad I found you!!!

Wow I’m not done listening yet but I have already learned 3 tricks I want to try! Thank you so very much,

Thank you for the suggestion of setting stitch length at zero instead of dropping the feed dogs. I have a 1939 Singer treadle, and no way to drop the feed dogs. Setting stitch length to zero was perfect! Thank you again! I don't know if my machine ever came with a feed dog cover, but if it did, it's long gone now.

This is the BEST free motion quilting!

I am so pleased your video was in my you tube feed today, subscribing right this minute! I’ve just started quilting, love hand stitching, but don’t have the luxury of time. Thank you so much for todays tips!

Just watched my first video from you as recommended by the salesperson in a quilt store today when I went looking for a glide mat. They didn't sell them but she had praise for your methods and products. I have ordered the beginners kit and can't wait to put your great tips into practice. Also great only coming from over the border.👍♥️

Thank you! Your explanation of the process of beginning free motion quilting was what I needed to hear!

Ooooooo i’ve just bought my new brand-new bernina Sew Machine I’m an experience sewer but it was fabulous to see what you were teaching I’ve done free motion quilting courses before but nothing like you’ve just taught thank you so much and those wedges at the back of the machine? Fabulous idea fabulous! In the purple hope excellent excellent I’m going to get my knee lift in the next couple of days from Bernina here in Christchurch and I’m gonna get one of those slip mats and a purple hope because I prefer quilt as you go as well thank you so much the fact that you slip laden at the end excellent thank you regards Sylvia from somewhere in New Zealand because we live in a bus and we travelling around… And my machines coming everywhere with me I’ve just closed my sewing business of 12 years because we sold our property and now we’re in a bus my spinning wheel has come with me as well as my sewing machine and my over locker I’m very excited to get out of the rat race and enjoy the peace of my retirement

Thanks so much Pauline. Great tips.

Thank you so much Pauline. I’ve been quilting on my Bernina but learnt so much from you.

Wonderful! Thank you, Pauline!

Pauline! You won me at not wanting to upgrade to a newer sewing machine. I'm going to try quilt as you go and thank you for your beginning recommendation. Love this video.💕

Thank you very much! Wonderful explanation and visual😊

Great tips, thank you!! Best video ever

Thanks so much. I learned many steps In this short video than in any other. You explain things simple and thoroughly. I had tried free motion quilting and got frustrated that I stopped trying.

What an excellent tutorial. Thank you Pauline.

Thank you for all your advice!!

What a beautiful Tutorial for Free Motion Quilting. This is the best I have seen and now so much more confident in taking this on. Excellent how this is all explained to you. I have tried a bit of this from a class I took and no way was it explained to me like Pauline does this. I will look for more programs she teaches, she is an outstanding teacher in my book.

Loved this video. It was terrific. Thank you very much.

Thank you for a very informative lesson.

Best tutorial on free motion! 😉

This is a fabulous free motion tutorial! I have tried to do fmq in the past... and it was not a pretty sight. The tips and tricks that you've shared here will make all the difference, I am sure. Thank you for this. Blessings to y'all.

Wonderful tips I've never seen before. I need a hoop!! So many times my needle has skipped. Moving the foot pedal and raising the back of machine will definitely help! I have my machine set with needle to go down at the end automatically, that helped me a lot.

I have owned my Bernina 750 for 6 years and have never had the excellent instruction and tips that you have provided. Thank you! I can hardly wait to put them into practice 😃

Great simple instructions and tips love it

This is a wonderful instructional video....so many helpful tips!

Loved this video

Thanks Pauline, I think I met you a few years ago at the quilting show in Brisbane. Thank you for the tutorial.

Just starting my quilting journey and I am so pleased that I came across your tutorial. Love all your tips and will start to practice practice practice.

Awesome tip about the door wedges. That will make a huge difference in my posture!

New subscriber! So happy I found you. Your style is perfect for me.

Thank you for this tutorial. I am a new quilter and appreciate your help!

I watch your videos every day, hopefully i will master your skills one day. I have bought some products from you but I find them expensive, can you have more specials?😊

This is the best video lesson I’ve seen! I learned more from this than all the others I’ve seen on free form quilting. Thank you, Ellen

Hi Pauline, I have just come across your channel. I am so delighted I found you. I am so pleased you are in Queensland, Australia the same state where I reside.

Thank you so much! So clear ! So helpful!!!💚💚💚

Excellent video and easy to understand

Excellent Tutorial for a beginner. Thank you

I got the rubber door stoppers you recommended and I'm thrilled to report I didn't get a stiff sore neck and shoulders after tilting the machine towards me. Thank you! Thank you!

Great explanation! Going to experiment with left foot on pedal today. Never thought to try that. I’ve been using quilting gloves but am ready to try your hoop idea. Sounds more comfortable. Thanks sew much. I’ve subscribed! Hello from Southern California USA 💕🇺🇸 🏝

❤thank you for putting me at ease and a challenge to get to “FREE HAND QUILTING”😊

Excellent tutorial. ❤

Thanks for all of the posture helping tips! I have a really bad spine, and that’s from my neck to my bum so I always need to be aware of my posture.

Fabulous tutorial

Thank you, great tips.

Very informative and professional. The best instructor! Thank you so much.

I'm 65 as well but never really sewed beside but I want to try quilting someday. Excellent video.

You're a great teacher, I just might be able to do this the way you teach it. Can't wait to see you're other videos especially qayg.
