Basic Straight Line Quilting on a Domestic Machine

[@patriciaboyer6630]

I’m new to quilting and I want to thank you for all this information it was great

[@becunningham8850]

You have a gift for teaching. First free motion quilting that I thought I could actually do. Thank you for you channnel

[@beverlymccracken4953]

Rob!!! You are loved and your sense of humor is great!

[@AprilMizer]

You just totally rock! Thank you 😊

[@kimberlyd9049]

I just discovered you; what a delight! I quilt a lot-but free motion quilting feels beyond me. However, I’m probably paying my longarmer’s monthly mortgage with the money I pay her to quilt my work. She does a fabulous job-but the fees are getting hefty. You have me thinking about free motion quilting again. Thank you!

[@JudyDucrou1005]

Great video, I am not very good at the free motion quilting and your video is a great way to practice. I would love to see more easy free motion quilting ideas that will be easy to practice. thank you Rob. Regards Judy Ducrou

[@jenihansen7201]

I LOVE THIS DEMONSTRATION ROB. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

[@nancyharman4795]

I've mainly done hand quilting; machine quilting has always intimidated me, since it's "supposed" to look perfect. After watching this tutorial, I may try machine quilting again. Nothing fancy like loops or swirls, but I may have a go at straight line. One of my biggest problems the other time I attempted machine quilting was the lack of grip, since I didn't have the gloves. After that literally painful experience, I've shied away from the machine. Thanks for the encouragement, and additional thanks for a highly-entertaining, energetic video! 😺

Rob is one of the best teachers of free motion quilting! He's taught me so much. I use the Machingers gloves and have found them so useful when working on the larger work, like borders and bindings. Really makes it MUCH easier to control the fabric under the needle. Thanks, Rob! You are terrific!

[@susanrascone2098]

I would like to see you do the pea pods please. Are you on the retreat with the Quilting Marine and Combat Quilter?

[@suzywind8153]

Really like your comment about carefree organic quilting. I really enjoy quilting with that approach.

[@jeankeith7309]

I have a lap quilt to put together to quilt & I am going to try this! Thank you so much! 💙

[@LQ327]

Hi Rob thanks for a great video. I have avoided free motion quilting for fear of messing up. But you gave me the motivation to try. I loved how you didn’t have to be perfect!! Could you do a flower? Just wondering how it would look.

[@debraholmes6290]

Great video Rob! Think it must take a lot of practice to operate your machine standing up, especially doing straight line quilting!!

[@michellebusta3507]

I want to learn to make some Ys and Ws. I love this basket weave pattern

[@mariaangelesvenereo4143]

I have always been afraid of doing this with my free motion foot. I think I am going to try it after this demonstration. Thank you Rob

[@StitchinHeaven]

YOU can do it!

[@vickieaxell9518]

❤ Thank you .I needed to see this. Now I'll do this with a Potato Chip quilt block I'm making.

[@susanrascone2098]

I recently did the potato chip quilt too and did free motion wavy lines on it.

[@cecilianyberg4941]

I loved this tutorial! I would like to learn some flowers.

[@robinr6399]

Rob, you are such a delight to learn from. Do you have a video, or two, on how to paint a machine? Love what you did for the Quilting Marine!

[@klwmadeit]

I have been putting off quilting my completed ‘My Colourful Town’ quilt because I feel it needs free motion straight lines to highlight so many houses with siding and rooflines. Thank you, this may have given me the steam I need to try it!

[@Melanie-vy4zj]

Loved the video and would love to see some swirls to try for beginner FMQers.

[@jessicatexasjh]

Great video! But putting Tiffany's "dirt" out there was hilarious 😂

[@deliacoetzee5702]

Hi from South Africa 🇿🇦 love your quilting and your show I'm a huge fan

[@KimN1256]

I would love for you to teach all the free motion patterns that work well with a domestic machine.

[@dianakranning9843]

Thank you so much for demonstrating straight line quilting and giving so many tips. I am wanting to try and start quilting on some smaller projects with my domestic machine and this was so helpful. I am fond of the stipple quilting, but open to any types of patterns, such as feathers, or any type of curves. Thanks again Rob!

[@judypurcell954]

My favorite design is feathers! Especially elongated swirl feathers.

[@SharonNickson]

Awesome!

[@donnarichey144]

Thank you Rob for sharing.

[@junedyson3539]

So enjoyed watching. Thank you Rob.

[@SheridaMcMann]

This was so helpful thank you so much! Flowers please!!!

[@deborahkelley8482]

I would like to learn how to do stars! Love your videos!

[@jenihansen7201]

NEEDLE DOWN FUNCTION IS THE BEST !

[@mariaangelesvenereo4143]

Agree

[@nitababcock3977]

Very good information! I've been using a regular foot & stitch in the ditch, unless it's a big quilt, then I take it to my quilter. I've been looking to see if I can purchase a quilting foot to make it easier.

[@karenpeterson5414]

Very helpful encouragement! Thanks 😊

[@nedawilmhoff3599]

Free motion is a good skill to learn and if you’re comfortable it’s great but a walking foot using this method would be much easier and better results for many people.

[@karena7950]

I would like to see you do loops and swirls!

[@cdgulvin]

This is so helpful. Thank you!

[@Quiltfee]

Hi, I find that if I start a line again after the "stop" if I make the first stitch in the same place it makes it easier to keep the line straight

[@giovannacasadio9600]

Great video, Rob. You inspired me to try it.😅

[@elizabethbrigham9435]

New at free motion How about just a stem with leaves on each side instead of feathers? Also am I suppose to get notices of your new videos in my email inbox if so I don't get them I am an 81 year old shut in and love to see new things I can do with my sewing machine. I sew several hours each day - mostly for charity

[@jojeffrie962]

Great video, would love to see stars please. 😊

[@katehenry2718]

Why make the stitching lines so close? That smashes the stuffing so it isn't a warm quilt. Is it that the choice of stuffing demands that distance? Will it come apart with "blanket" use? I would have gone around once per color section and left some loft in the stuffing.

[@saramccool4899]

Tiffany might not let you borrow her machine again 😂

[@brettster3331]

Hi Rob, please try a free motion small Triangle pattern. Best to you.

[@kathrynbruton9065]

I would like to see a wave stitch or stars.

[@nildavalencia5524]

I subscribed! Thanks 😊

[@beverlymccracken4953]

Thank you! You give me hope!!! Lol

[@earleneharper9353]

What numbers do set to for free motion

[@thenewquiltinglifewithjanice]

Hello, just wanted to know, is it better to stand when you quilt on your domestic machine or sit down when your quilting

[@StitchinHeaven]

It is best to be comfortable. I really only stand at my domestic while on camera to make the tutorials. I sit at my domestic most of the time, and stand at my long arm.

[@thenewquiltinglifewithjanice]

Thank you

[@PattyGratton]

If you quilt in all the orange areas do you need to quilt the purple areas?

[@StitchinHeaven]

No, I left the purple strips untouched, other than sneaking the thread through the seam into another basket weave section.

[@debbietrent3857]

😂you borrowed so clean and oil before returning…. 👍🏼👏🏼

[@teresam9101]

Slob in the bobbin area-🤣😂

[@pamfox1601]

[@karenbrunette6314]

[@norenemorneau4343]

Like to watch you do a quilt with a straight ruler.

[@debbiebraatz1919]

I’d like to see wishbones and pea pods❤

[@19Celia57]

Why on EARTH are you living in east Texas? I have family in Tyler and Houston, used to live there. I am wondering how your love of the west coast ocean is surviving. ♥

[@StitchinHeaven]

Oh No, I work in Texas, but Live in CA, surf is much better on west coast.

[@jenihansen7201]

i WOULD LIVE TO KNOW HOW TO QUILT WATER, BASICALLY, IT IS CALLED CALM WATER.
