I would like to watch free motion quilting using rulers
Quilting with rulers
This type of post would be very helpful, and I am sure many of us would appreciate good examples (and hopefully instructions) for various free motion quilting patters.
Not useful at all. Expected to find help with the actual machine quilting process.

I’d have to see the stitching as well as the fabric. How would you quilt the Boteh if the design were appliqué.
Hi Elizabeth,
Here is what our expert had to say:
Any time you are quilting something that has an applique on it- I always recommend stitching around the appliqued design (as opposed to over it). This can either be done as an echo type of quilting where you follow the shape of the applique design, or you could do any kind of motif or fill stitch around the design. If the applique design is rather large, you may want to do a small amount of quilting on it as well.
Let us know if other questions come up!

I don’t understand the point of this post. It shows swatches of fabrics, and this is supposed to be inspirational for FMQ?
