As always - your videos very informative, helpful and straight to the point. Thank you so much!

[@briteddy9759]

Couching is a technique I have been contemplating to try. Thank you for this nice overview. I did not realize you had so many options with respect to the feet.

[@donnacampbell8796]

Thanks so much for this tutorial. You make all things seem doable. Can't wait to try couching!

[@ericmel99]

Love your tutorials. I have learned so much about my machine!!

[@christinevalentine3373]

I loved you clear and thorough explanation of options to couch. 🙏

[@lauraveechFMQ]

I love watching your videos. I learn so much from them.

[@cherieiduke1723]

The straw idea is pure genius. I would not go out a buy a special foot to try something but I would do the straw idea to try it to see if I liked it. Thanks again.

[@amendez6358]

The last free motion couching sample is beautiful

[@skortle]

Excellent video! Thank you for posting.

[@eileenjones8552]

Thank You Laura! Great tips and I like your straw idea! I hate to say it, but I didn’t know there was a hole on the side of free motion foot! Your the BEST!!!!!!

[@maryquinn9189]

Thank you so much for this you have caused so many bells to go off in my head. Thank you so very much Anne

[@PsychicKathleen]

Thank you Laura!! I'm just working on the Nenuphar Kimono (Deer & Doe patterns) and have been couching some silk wool along some of the design lines. I loved your example using the decorative stitch. Wish I'd seen that before!!

[@pastda3]

I always learn something from watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing! 🙂

[@DuluthTW]

Great info. Thanks for sharing!

[@jeevarekha1403]

I always thought couching can b done only with that specific foot. Your video was very informative and also demonstrated how i can achieve the effect I desired with the foot I already have!! Very useful!

[@chippewagirl7299]

Love the look of couching. Very well done, Thanks

Laura, I just tried the DIY couching foot idea (after seeing how much the foot I want costs) and it works a treat! You are a genius and I love to see what you come up with. Thanks so much for sharing and making it all sew very easy! :-)

[@cbarbosa328]

[@radhavishwanath4213]

Thank you Laura, for sharing your Knowledge. Did you do the crouching without the feeddogs in this tutorial? Please clear my doubt.Thank you.

[@beyesh3760]

So I should be able to couch the black of a stain glass quilt with my free motion foot just like the yellow on the red you did. Correct? That way I can do all my glass part and cover with couching the black over all the edges like you would real stain glass.😃😃

[@dawntenneson6360]

Thank you so much for the information on vouching! Love it ! I was wondering what kind of gloves you are wearing?

[@SewVeryEasy]

just garden gloves :)

[@spw2822]

Hi! Where do you get the designs for couching? Really love the one you’ve used here.

[@cc83jc85]

Great explanations once again! With many more great hints- (I wont use this for a - little- while yet!).. I noticed your FOOT have number stickers on, mine don't (Paff) and I struggle at times seeing their numbers, thanks again Laura! Marietta Brisbane

[@joane8651]

I have a Pfaff, too, and was thinking the same thing the other day---

[@SewVeryEasy]

I have a Bernina and the feet are a little different and are very well marked.

[@SewVeryEasy]

I have a Bernina and the feet are a little different and are very well marked.

[@debbieford8542]

SewVeryEasy I bought my first machine, a Bernina 1130 and I got a really,thick manual with it detailing every foot and examples of what you could use them for. That was back in 1989/90. Sadly, I loaned the machine to someone and forgot about it, they dumped it before checking with me first, so angry, i loved that machine, don't make them like it anymore. 😪

[@margiejones5976]

Do you have a video showing how you drew the design on your fabric? Did you use a light box?

[@tscarborough2196]

Is the couching design an original? If not where can I find design.

[@nancy554]

Hi, where do I buy a couching foot for my industrial Juki sewing machine?

[@mbelun]

Hi what's the name of the gold cord please

[@irenequansah7771]

Please where can I get the foot to buy? Thank you

[@winningnumbers]

Where can I purchase that foot at 10.36 please? and what is it called EXACTLY please? Thank you in advance for a reply.

[@deno81]

hi thanks for this very informative video... do anyone have any link I could purchase the free motion foot press? I was looking all around and could never find one! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@SewVeryEasy]

Be sure to get one that is suitable for your machine. Not all of them are interchangeable. I find the best way to get what you need is to go to a sewing machine repair shop or a shop that sells the sewing machines.

[@DH-qz2so]

I tried couching using my free motion quilt foot and some yarn...works fine in a straight line...but when you start to circle around the needle won't 'hit' the yarn at all, so there are missed spots! Thanks for the video!

[@JudyHart1]

D H try a different foot, I tried my free motion clear foot, but will try different foot.

[@debbieford8542]

hi D H. not sure what machine u have (mine r Brother & pfaff) and as i don't do couching that often, didn't purchase a specific foot so I use the N foot - normally reserved for decorative stitches. You can't use thick yarn and it takes practice, a LOT of practice. If you think it's something you'll do a lot, I'd purchase a couching foot, not usually expensive.

[@rosariomitchcooney8813]

Hi DH, also I had same problem, after watching Laura's video, I now know much more, for the free mot foot she uses fine yarn & straight stitch as quilting, for the more decorative threads she uses other feet eg ziz zag and feed dogs up. WAtch her video again as it has lots of info, & later I also will practice as I want to use couching more. I think I might have been threading foot wrong as another lady noted.

[@narmathafashiondesignerman4051]

Super madam please reply

[@christypoos9728]

Laura can you please tell me what number your Couching FMQ foot is that you use for your Bernina. I want to get one, but did not see what number your foot was thank you.

[@SewVeryEasy]

it was number 43

[@bobbiejernigan8836]

Christy Poos 63

[@poonam9717]

Hi

[@marisascasserra3897]

Sottotitoli in italiano pleaseeeee

Free motion foot is more useful
