Easy Walking Foot Quilting Designs with On Williams Street

- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- Walking foot quilting is a fun and easy way to finish quilts, but you don't have to just do straight lines.
Whether you are a beginner quilter or more experienced, quilting with a walking foot is a simple way to finish any quilting project, big or small. Using your walking foot to quilt will help move both the top and bottom fabric at the same time, preventing your quilt top and backing from moving at different speeds and creating puckers or wrinkles. You can easily create interesting patterns and shapes while finishing an entire quilt with this one tool, no free motion required.
Visit our website for diagrams showing the quilting path for each of these designs.

"I love piecing, applique, paper piecing, even binding...but I hate quilting." hahah this is totally me too!!!
We should start a support group. ;)
We should start a club!
@@OnWilliamsStreet hahaha totally!
I did it!!!! I now realize that the mess I got the last time I tried to section off for the “V” pattern was because of “operator error”. 1) I sewed tooooo fast, and 2) I now realize I was actually pushing my fabric to the center to smooth it out. This time I first taped along the “X” with blue painters tape and slowed down my sewing super slow,sewing right at the edge, not on the tape. That gave me the perfect starting line for each section. Also, just kept the quilt area flat with my hands and sewed all of the echo lines in very slow motion. PERFECT, I just have one section done, 3 to go, but I’m thrilled. I’ve wanted to do that type of straight line quilting for ages. I can do it!,
Thanks for teaching me; I found you today
Try a spiral with a walking foot. Reduce the foot pressure to 1 or 2 and its pretty easy to turn as you go.
Great idea for a video and not trying to be negative, but seems like the part you fast forward through is the part we want to watch, the design, how you deal with intersections and maybe fabric drag.
We've definitely learned lots since making this video (it was one of our first) and have plans to update it this year to make it better.
Starting a new RUclips channel is hard and it takes awhile to find an audience. I really hope you stick with it. I really enjoy your videos and have learned a lot from them.
Thank you! We plan on it! We've learned we really enjoy sharing and teaching others everything we are learning and this is a great way to do it.
Thanks ! Great info!
It would be helpful to see how each one is actually done rather than just the end result.
Thanks for all the tips! I am going to break out my walking foot this weekend!!
You are welcome!
Love it!
I agree...quilting is my least favorite part and I don't do it well. I cannot afford to pay someone to quilt most of them (I do occasionally splurge). Always looking for easy options that I can do successfully. I prefer batting that allows for a lot of space between the quilt stitches. Currently I am trying a quilt-as-you-go technique.
Ive got a walking foot for my janome
I love the quilting.
Thank you! We love to find easy ways to get quilts finished so they can be used.
Thanks!! I didn't know how to do this & learned a lot!!!
I love quilting & my walking foot. :)
You are very welcome!
Very fine plans😀
Thank you!
Next time can you start off each one slower instead of speeding up from the beginning it is hard to follow when you speed it up. Remember this is for beginners thank you.
Will do! In the meantime, we do have diagrams showing the stitching path in our blog post that may help as well. www.onwilliamsstreet.com/walking-foot-quilting/
Thanks for a great video. I was so excited to see you sewing on a Bernina 230! I have that machine and I just love it! It is a real workhorse!
It's a great machine and just keeps being amazing!
Amazing thanks for sharing
Our pleasure!
I love the walking foot, I use it all of the time. Mine is dual feed and built in. Love my new machine Bernette77.
That sounds so fancy! Missy seldom takes her walking foot off her machine.
Thanks for the tutorial. Is there any way you can do the echoing one without cutting out all the parts that show how this is done? I'm new to quilting and do not understand the directions you gave below. I'd love to see the path you take to do each line. I checked out the link you provided, but the diagram also doesn't show where the needle travels around the edge of the block.
If you head to the blog post on our website for this video, we have diagrams there that show the stitch path and that might help make it clearer. If you still have any questions, please feel free to shoot us an email and we'll help you out! www.onwilliamsstreet.com/walking-foot-quilting/
I would like to see this done in a little more detail as I am new. The last few I was lost as to how you actually switched directions. I like the concepts though.
The blog post has more details, also, check out some of our other walking foot videos as we slowed down and showed a little more in them. I'll also note that more detail in another video would be good! Thank you for your feedback.
Son preciosos sus proyecto a pesar de no saber el idioma los logro hacer muchas graciad
¡De nada!
Christmas place mats
This would be a perfect way to finish Christmas placemats.
On the two yellow ones, do you stop at the end of each of the shorter lines? Do you do reinforcing stitches at the end of each line? What type of reinforcing stitch? I’m really enjoying your videos and I’m going to start your sew along this weekend.
We don't stop, we simply turn it and stitch over the previous line, turn again and keep going. That way, you don't need to worry about backstitching or buying any threads. If you head to the blog post you can see the quilting path a little easier in the diagrams. www.onwilliamsstreet.com/walking-foot-quilting/ Let me know if that makes sense!
On Williams Street Yes that makes sense. I just started picking out fabrics for my first block of your QAL
This was way to fast for beginners but your hot pads when do be are lovely Thx
We have more information and diagrams in the blog post to help with path. We've also adjusted future videos to slow down and show it better. Thank you for the feedback! We are learning with each video and always trying to make better videos for you!
Hi ..it was a very nice video..but the main part where you were showing how to quilt was too fast and I couldn't get it how you were doing .. can you make another video in a normal motion so that it's easy to understand...
Thanks
If you head to the blog post www.onwilliamsstreet.com/walking-foot-quilting/ we have diagrams showing the direction to travel. This might make it easier to understand. In future walking foot quilting videos, we won't do it all the sped up version so it's easier to follow along.
Love the straight line quilting, the speed up was too fast to catch very much!
That's been common feedback and we've taken it into account for future videos. If you head to the blog post we do have diagrams to show the stitch lines that may help!
I agree on the speed for the echo quilting. I tried to stop it to figure out what was going on, but it was difficult. I have tried Quilting that way from the outside in and it ended up everything bunched up as I got towards the inside of the design. and I had to rip out all my Quilting. I spray bast really well but I’m afraid to try that again.
I love the paper pieced butterflies. Do you have a pattern I can buy? I also love piecing, but do not like FMQ. It is nerve wracking.
I really cannot afford sending every quilt I make out to a long arm quilter. I use my walking foot now to due quilting. I like the serpentine stitch a lot. I really like the look.
Thanks for your good videos.
Read thru comments and found info on the butterfly block. Thank you!!
That was a pattern we got from somewhere else. Not one of our own. If you visit the link and go to the blog post, I believe we included where we got it. If not, we don't remember.
Are patterns available for the adorable butterflies? Thank you. Yours is one of my favorite channels!
Yes! They aren't one of ours, but if you click over to the blog post we have links to where you can find them. www.onwilliamsstreet.com/walking-foot-quilting/
Thank you!
Can you please provide more information on how you did the echoing? The video made it seem like you were sewing through the entire square but when you lifted it at the end there were no lines intersecting. Thanks
If you head to our blog post, we have the stitching path drawn out that shows the full stitching diagrams. If you still have more questions, feel free to send us an email and we'll help you out! www.onwilliamsstreet.com/walking-foot-quilting/
Your hot pads are beautiful. Can you tell me where to find those patterns? I would like to make some too. Thanks.

@@OnWilliamsStreet Thank you so much for getting back to me so quickly. I found the links on your website after I attached the above comment. I will be making a few of these for sure. I was also impressed with all the good information on your site. You can never have too much quilting information! I will enjoy looking through all your posts etc. I’m so glad I found you, I’ve subscribed to your channel and look forward to seeing what you are doing in the future. Happy quilting!
What marking pen do you use?
We have a few different ones we like depending on the circumstance. This blog post talks all about them and when we use them! on-williams-street.myshopify.com/blogs/news/how-to-mark-a-quilt-for-free-motion-quilting
why not just stitch in the ditch, following the piecing lines?
That is absolutely an option if you don't want extra quilting. We love extra quilting though, so we like to share lots of options for that.
I love your ideas, but the video was too fast to see what you were doing.
This was one of our first videos and we've tried to slow down and do things differently since them. Check out the blog post, it has diagrams to help show things as well.
I do not like to do the marking. I use painters tape a lot to start off some of my stitching.
That's a great idea!
Luckily I can Quilt multiple layers without using a walking foot. ....but thank you!
Wonderful!
Umm so where’s the walking foot??🤔
It's on the sewing machine!
@@OnWilliamsStreet hmmm mine looks totally different. Much larger.
@@jeffreylee7040 It's kind of hidden in this camera angle. You can see it better at the beginning of the video when she's talking :)
Can you not go backwards with the walking foot. I am afraid to put it on my machine for that reason. I might forget and break it.
We go backwards on ours. Missy uses it for most of the sewing she does. I would double check the brand for the one you have, but you might be able to go backwards no problem (we assume you are referring to back stitching, right?)
@@OnWilliamsStreet mine is for a singer machine.
@@donnarichey144 We don't have any singers, so I can't say for certain. I'd contact your local dealer or Sewing machine technician and I'm sure they'd be able let you know.
@@OnWilliamsStreet Donna I have a singer and I use my walking foot all the time. Yes you can go backwards
Your hot pads are beautiful. Can you tell me where to find those patterns? I would like to make some too. Thanks.
iiii8
So… straight lines? That’s not four different things. That’s one. You just broke your areas up. Also. For straight lines it’s better to start in the middle and break your quilt into sections … doing the way you did on a larger area eventually you end up with a slight angle and your straight lines are no longer straight!
Most walking foot quilting ideas are straight lines (not all, but most). We are simply sharing different ways to put them together and create different designs across the quilt top.
too fast for a beginner to learn.
Check out the blog post, we have all the diagrams drawn out that might help! We have learned the more videos we have made and are doing things differently to make it easier to follow.
entirely too fast and I couldn't follow at all!
Thank you for the feedback. We have more walking foot quilting videos planned and have definitely adjusted them so that it's hopefully easier to see what is going on. For this video, if you head to the blog post (linked in the description) there are diagrams to help you see the direction you would move to quilt out the designs.
Also, you can change the speed on the video as you watch. Settings or the 3 dots in corner.
Too fast
We are learning with each video and have made adjustments to future ones. For these designs, if you head to the blog post (link in the description) you will see diagrams that show the stitching path for you that may help.
@@OnWilliamsStreet one year on and I love “walking foot” quilting- I just cannot master free motion and so W F Q is just what I need - thank you 🙏
