I bought that book of Tavishing 2 and have been tavishing or as she said call it by your name. I am in love with this. Its so different and has really beefed up my skills as a longarmer. Thanks Leah! you are awesome.
No, I don't use a stitch regulator. It's really down to practice and NOT stopping to rip. Think about it - every time you stop and rip you are not quilting and building skill, you are obsessing about perfection. So stop doing that, learn to accept those learning mistakes, and pretty soon you will stop making them. There is a flow to this craft with the speed and movement of your hands and machine that you will only find if you just keep quilting and stop ripping. Good luck!
Really lovely quilting I will have to practice more .very pleased with the gloves and machine cover for quilting thanks for your lovely quilting video s on u tube .
Your videos are wonderful. I love how clearly you express your instructions. I have many quilter friends on IG and your name has come up as a great source on how-to videos. I wish you happy things and sunshine, always!
Because my foot has a little adjuster spring on the side, I often fiddle with it and change the height of my foot depending on what I'm stitching, if the quilt has a lot of seam allowances, etc. I really go by feel. If the foot is resting too high, I feel slightly out of control and see the quilt bouncing around too much, so I lower it. If it's too low, I usually notice the quilt getting hung up on the foot itself. It's definitely something to play with and see if a height adjustment could help
thanks so much for this. I love doing this design.. I do better on practice blocks in a small scale. Haven't yet learned how to move the design to a larger scale. Linda Bridges
Leah,, do you have a machine with a stitch regulator on it? I would love to try this technique but I have trouble free motion quilting and keeping my stitches a uniform length...then if I get going too fast, I get a big long stitch and have t stop, cut the thread and go back :(
I've never tried this type of quilting, but it looks like fun. :D I like doing pieced quilting. Can you do this type of stitching on a pieced quilt? If you want to learn how to do some pieced quilting check out this video: Pieced People Part 2
Leah, if I quilt a border should I make a stitch line at the edge so I can travel on that edge? I would like to do a free motion vine on a border, and also in the same quilt on another border I was thinking about doing pebbles but I'm afraid that pebbles on a border might be to dense? What is your opinion and valued input on that as well? Thanks Leah!!
I would quilt from the inside of the quilt to the outer edges. If you're quilting a vine, stitch that line first, then fill in the leaves to fill the background space. Pebbling isn't too dense if you quilt it on a large scale. The key is to make the circles large - 1-2 inches around if possible because the bigger the circles, the softer your quilt will be. Does that make sense?
Yes, it makes perfect sense, I understand! However, I didn't make myself clear in my first question. On my last border I am planning on doing vines and leaves; I am wondering if I should stitch 1/4- 1/8" around the outside edge to hold the border down while I free motion quilt, like you do on your practice pieces or could that cause puckering from the FMQ?? Hope you understand what I mean.. lol thanks!!!

Thank you Becca for your wonderful compliment. I'm curious - what is IG?
Instagram! I've gotten much inspiration from quilters around the globe there.
I love your video it is so informative and it helps me see what I need to learn. Thank you so much

Love watching you teach the great Karen’s McTavishing

Thank you Leah. very informative.
Thank you for watching!
I'm pretty sure this is Quilter's Dream Polyester batting in either the select or request loft.
thanks so much for this. I love doing this design.. I do better on practice blocks in a small scale. Haven't yet learned how to move the design to a larger scale.

Quick Question Leah what are you using for your batting in the quilt you are working on in this video ..
Thank YOu!!!
