Walking Foot Quilting Tutorial: How to Stitch Wavy Grid on Terrace Tiles

[@lw3396]

Great tutorial. You always make things look so quick and easy. You must have very strong shoulder muscles, Christa! =) Thank you again.

[@ChristaQuilts]

Haha! If you have a nice ergonomic sewing setup like I do, there's no strain on the body at all!

I love watching your tutorials. Clear, concise information. And your quilt sandwich part of the video using a long ruler to smooth front and back and then ironing from both sides I'd great information. I do that for all my quilts based on your prior videos.

Yay I'm so glad you are enjoying my tips!

Thank you for the tutorial. I've often used the serpentine stitch to quilt baby quilts but think I'll try this wavy lines technique next time.

Thanks for watching!

Another wonderful tutorial! I have a 770Q also, but am confused about how to decrease the foot tension to 0 on the Dual Feed. I have always just put on my Walking Foot. Such a cute kids quilt!

[@ChristaQuilts]

Thanks for watching! The presser foot pressure is completely separate from the dual feed. And it's not the same thing as tension. Check your manual for instructions on adjusting it. It's very easy. You can still quilt these designs with a walking foot if you prefer.

Thanks so much. I Don't know my machine as well as I should & my dealer closed, so the nearest is in another state (!) in one direction or about 2 1/2 hours away in the other. But I Do use this design with my Walking Foot after reading your book! @@ChristaQuilts

@@sewquilty I recommend following Bernina Jeff on KZbin. He has lots of great videos that will help you get comfortable with your machine 🙂

Beautiful quilts! Where did you purchase your design wall?

[@ChristaQuilts]

I made it - you can see how I did it here on my blog: christaquilts.com/2019/04/08/tutorial-how-to-build-a-design-wall-for-quilting/

I cant change the presser foot pressure. Can this still be done? Also I see your just shifting left to right how often would you say you are doing that? I cant get my curves consistent

[@ChristaQuilts]

My curves are in no way consistent lol! It’s definitely more of an organic look that’s different each time I do it. Not all machines have that feature to adjust presser foot pressure. But if you can quilt on a large surface area and use a gentle hand while pushing the machine through you can get good results.

Olá de Portugal! 🎉

I don’t understand why you start quilting on the end of the right side of your quilt. Isn’t the point of having extra batting & backing is that the top fabric may move outwards as you quilt? Why don’t you start on the L & R of the centre line?

[@ChristaQuilts]

if you baste well, it won't shift on you and you can start quilting anywhere on the quilt you want. I find that it's much easier to control the bulk by starting on the right hand side. There's less fabric to wrestle in the beginning and I build up my confidence as I go.
