Love watching your tutorials and videos I’m working on a quilt for my niece but watching your videos helps me thank you

Excellent video! Thank you so much for teaching us !

Hi from Wales UK I have to oust my husband off the small dining table we have when I want to do any quilting as we only have a small bungalow but I have always used oilcloth to protect the table surface and this is great for pin basting as it is slippery on top so the points of the safety pins just glide along and don't go through to damage my tables surface. I too have bought some clamps as at over 70 crawling around on the floor to baste my quilts was getting very difficult and I got fed up of pinning the carpet to my quilt back!!!

Always learn more every time I watch you quilt free motion!! 🤗

Best part of the video was when you showed the back. How many times us real life quilters turn our quilts over and omg NOOOO!!!! LOOSE THREADS! Lol thanks for a fun and informative video. You made my day .

Rob, this has helped me so much. Your mistakes and solutions are so helpful. New quilters use the same thread color and the same kind of thread in the top and bobbin. Also, a busy quilt back hides our mistakes better. Rob was so brave to use a solid light color for the backing and two different colors. Looking forward to the next tutorial.

Excellent video Rob! Great information and camera views, exactly what I needed! I’m happy you are going to do this weekly! Perfection is overrated and so nice of you to show us that you are human too! ❤❤❤ Also, just ordered that quilt on preorder! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for teaching us soo much enjoy watching n learning

Thanks on the tip for cutting your bobbin thread when you cut the top. Very helpful!

Great class Rob! I learned some great points. Thanks for sharing. Nice job!

Thanks for explaining how to get out of problems.

Thanks Rob, I learned from this. I only have a domestic machine. 👍

This is the best..and I mean very best beginner free motion quilting video!

Excellent camera work.I’m new to free motion . Enjoyed relaxing and informative video

I learned a number of valuable things, so thank you. But I hoped you were going to use an actual domestic sewing machine. It seems like most KZfaq quilters have the money to buy big expensive machines with enormous throats, plenty of room to stuff a quilt through, like yours. But fancy machines like this are not what most of us can afford and use. Can you do at least one video with tricks on a common machine with a 4-5" throat?

You are always wildly excited in what ever you do Rob. You are truly a great guy love Jen in Australia. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘🐨🐨

This was great. You gave me a lot of inspiration. Just have to practice more. Thank you

Excellent instructions and video. Thank you so very much, you definitely inspire me. ❤

I love your tutorials

ROB, YOU ARE THE BEST. THANK YOU.

This is looking beautiful!

I love it. This is a wonderful demo that I haven’t seen before. Thank you so much. Now I will go practice.😅😅❤

Thanks soo much Rob this tutorial and the basting one was soo sooo soooooo helpfull for me. Now i can'T wait to actually quilt some quilts i made!! Thanks again!!!!!!! Great teacher.

Very good. Learned a lot.

I just got a q16 Berlin's and I learned more from your video to make me a better quilter. Wonderful

Always like watching you FMQ Rob! Sorry I missed you live but was registering and buying for the super 60 retreat and quilt kit. Excited to go!

Good seeing you again.

Nice work Rob! Thanks & have a great weekend with your family💕🧵

Thanks for the video and the lessons. I fully enjoy your presentations. By the way, it’s coming out beautiful!

🎉❤love your video and especially the way you talk about things I want to know. Thanks for sharing.

rob i like when u talk all the time. learn alot from u.

Great work!

Keep going. It looks great

Excellent thank you.

Keep on quilting😍

I have a folding table that's adjustable in height, which makes it easy on my back. I saw one of your videos a while back where you used clamps, and I've been doing it that way ever since.

Awesome video! I’m currently up to the FMQ on my queen size quilt which I have to do with a Bernina350 as I’ve done before. However, I’m thinking of hand quilting the centre first because that part gets really really hard to manoeuvre due to the limited throat space of the machine. Thanks so much for filming the process - it’s inspirational and confidence boosting.

Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Good day

Which Juki are you quilting with? I have a Juki Kirei which I bought like-new used at huge savings. My machine has 12" of throat space, and it makes quilting big quilts a breeze. And with the smart feed, it makes straight line quilting enjoyable too. It also has many other nice features. The truth of the matter is this: You cannot comfortably quilt large quilts on many domestics that have a little bit of throat space. It can be done, and I did it on my Bernina B530. Oh , it has a stitch regulator and all that, but at 7.5" of throat space, it was like wrestling an allipython. I found myself dreading quilting. I never quilt on it anymore, but I love it for other stuff. I have had not had good luck with Microtex on my Juki for quilting. I was getting skipped/dropped stitches (and I didn't have this with my Bernina) as well as needle failures (breaking/bent) and thread breaking. When I switched from Microtex to a topstitch needle (with an elongated eye), I had perfect results. I think that because the Juki is a faster machine and the elongated eye provided freer/smoother movement through the eye. I concluded that the Microtex was too delicate for the higher speed. It is however my favorite piecing needle.

A stitch regulator may help with the bobbin thread appearing on the top even if it is so tiny. It also may help with the looped threads on the back.

You are doing great

Yes u coming clear

The Spice pattern book is great

Hi from Australia

❤❤❤❤❤

this is when i quilt my tops on my embroidery machine

The handcuffs are for the rolled up quilt.

I have a machine that’s an old fancy machine that does embroidery but has a short throat, I just think you need to do the best you can with what you have. I feel there is something wrong w the tension on the machine he is using because you shouldn’t see the black on the back side when he is using that green thread. There are other companies that have a long throat w basic stitches that are reasonably priced, I know my dealer I go to does w the Janome and Brother brands, and they are great machines. Plus maybe you can find a used one reasonably priced w a store warranty. My last 2 machines were used.

What is the best way to store your quilt pieces until it is all sewn?

What kind of machine are you quilti f on. Love the throat space

Do u use your foot peddle. I have one that goes by itself. Like embroidery

What do you do if your bobbin thread shows up too much on the top of the quilt?

Is it possible or feasible for you to add cc to your video? Thank you for the valuable info/instruction

Does your Juki have a stitch regulator? I haven’t been able to be successful at FMQ without one.

Hi Rob, could you tell me which Juki this is please?

Are you using a stitch regulator

Did you use a Stitch regulator?

Stitching Heaven commented using a term "IMHO". What does that mean? Enjoyed the video. If I try FMQ I will start with a small project first. 😀

Hi Rob, would it be possible to relocate your mic? every time you put your head down it over modulates and is hard on the ears, maybe lower down on your chest, just trying to help......great tutorials btw and I definitely needed this one :)

That’s not a typical domestic sewing machine! Please can you do another tutorial using the sort of machines that we have at home?

Unfortunately turning on notifications for you and not other people is not possible. I don’t want to hear when everyone else goes live!

On a domestic machine….I don’t think so. This is a high end machine. No way in hell I could do this on my Walmart Singer Special…….

You don’t want a cat sitting on your quilt which is under your sewing machine and table while you quilt. That cat creates a drag on your quilt. I have had three cats who have done this while I quilt on my Handi Quilter , Sweet 16 sit down machine.

He probably isn’t going to read this comment but next time please move the microphone further away from your mouth. I don’t know why he’s yelling. The louder he speaks the more distorted the audio is
