I wish people like this would get more credit for their wonderful talents - we live in an era of cheap talent-less reality tv and absurd modern art where idiots get paid a fortune for nothing, when it's people like this who should get credit - amazing, thank you x
Just because you don't understand modern art doesn't mean it isn't art. It's the creative thought process that we don't want to stifle. What makes repetitive motions on a machine to make a letter C more valuable than modern art? Or do you just want people in the industrial world to keep their hands busy so they can't think for themselves? While I appreciate the lessons on free motion quilting, I can't agree with your bashing the art world. And get rid of that idiotic profile pic.
@@ranchochihuahua Your comment is both rude and uninformed. Modern art is part of the brutalism movement designed to depress and demoralize members of western nations -- all part of the communist (rooted in luciferianism) agenda. From 45 Goals of Communism for Takeover of United States (read into Congressional record in 1963): "22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to 'eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.' 23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. 'Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.' ..."
I love how you teach! You don’t waste the students time with excess talking while pleasantly explaining exactly how to do the technique. I’m going to try this, thank you!
I love your Andy on the shelf. I have Ann and Andy, gifts from a special friend, and I’ve never thought about displaying them in my sewing room. I will now. Vintage toys for vintage creations; it make sense. And, you always boost my courage.
You are an amazing teacher! Many people know what they know but cannot teach it to others. Your videos are fun, concise and oh so helpful!!! Thanks so much for sharing your gifts and talents.
Wow, I've never heard of the "putting a tune in your head" method to help maintain a consistent sewing speed!. What a great idea ☺. Guess what I'll be doing from now on while quilting.
You have given me hope to give this method a try, I usually do stitch in the ditch or zigzag, or wavy lines but you made this look so simple. Thank you. 👏🇦🇺🙋🏻♀️💐
Thank you Laura for this great video showing an easy and fun way to fmq my quilts...I make quilts for donation to a local women’s shelter ...I usually just stitch in the ditch but now I will be quilting them “making c’s” to give them a special look!
I agree the previous person who said you are amazing teacher. You made it look so easy and not worrying about mistakes (stitches all over the place) I am new quilter and I am about to try free motion quilting. Thank you for your teaching.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! For sharing this tutorial, and for showing where you "crossed the line" and said, "I'm leaving it.". In the past I've been so hyper-critical of my quilting that my hubby has half jokingly told me he thinks I enjoy taking my work out more than I do making the quilt. The past few months I've been going through the numerous quilt tops I've had waiting to be quilted. I've been "making" myself do free motion quilting and NOT going back to take out stitches that are perfectly fine. So far I've finished 5 quilts, and it's been very nice to have them finished and being enjoyed instead of unfinished, folded, and stored away.
+Jacee K Yes, don't worry about it, we all make cross overs, It takes practice to become perfect...a lot of practice...I have learned not to worry about it, I just enjoy the "doing". If only we were born expert quilters:)
I'm trying free quilting for the first time and can't wait to try this! I love the way you teach the steps and little tricks. So many videos out there are so random and disorganized but yours are always so concise and easy to understand. Thanks a ton!
Thank you. Like your video. You are an excellent teacher. Clear, concise instructions and you anticipate some issues and address them. Just bought a 13 inch sit down quilting machine. My group is making charity quilts and I volunteered to quilt them so I have 5 quilts to do! I like this pattern and will get lots of practice
Laura, I have been afraid to try more than straight lines or meandering in my machine quilting, but you make this technique look so easy! When I watch you, I can even see how your Cs might turn into feathers. Thanks so much for this inspiring video!
I am brand new to quilting and am so glad I found you. You are very easy to follow. You have a wonderful presence about you and I think it must be The Holy Spirit. Thank you for sharing your gift.
Thank you Laura for speaking so clear. I have hearing problems,with your videos I can actually understand you,and able to read your lips as well. Wonderful videos
SEW SEW COOL! You're so calm and I hope I can remember to be the same when trying this technique. I will practice on paper first till comfortable. I always love your tutorials and love to see your quilt projects too. Thanks a million!
Thank YOU, Thank YOU THANK YOU!!!!! This quilting pattern with the C are so great!. I finally feel like I can quilt my own tops and they look great! Thanks for taking the time to teach this stich.
Laura, I find you are extremely helpful! I have 5 quilts to complete and hesitated until today. I managed to doodle on one baby quilt. Tomorrow I will try your "C" method. It looks lovely and I feel more confident thanks to your clarity. Stay Tuned!
I took on the mammoth task of starting to make 8 snuggle blankets for my grandkids in time for Christmas. As this is the first Christmas of using my new sewing machine I have not done any stippling etc at all as I don't want to mess them up. Well, six down and only two to go, and after a few hitches, they do look good, not perfect but they're home sewn and unique to each child. I've also put a label on each one saying "Made with love by Grandma." Thank you so much for your videos, they're very helpful.
I just subscribe and to be honest I wasn't trying to quilt, but this video has changed my mind...imma study your videos some more and very soon imma give it a try...thank u for sharing your awesome craft.
Love this!! Your instruction is SO effective, that I can actually see myself doing this on my daughter's quilt! (C for Chloe ) Such great time, form and function tips from you! Thank you!
I love this stitch!!!! I'm going to use it on my Garden Charm quilt. I've been holding off quilting it because I didn't know what I wanted to do. Now I do!!!! Thank you so much, Laura.
This is my "go-to" FMQ design very often when I don't have a plan for a quilt, or am whipping up a quick project. It's also much easier than stippling. Very nice work and very pretty quilt. Thanks for sharing.
I have recently bought a new foot for my machine and want to have a go at free motion quilting. You have such a relaxed manner which makes it easy to understand. Thank you so much. Debbie [UK]
I have not made my first quilt yet but I can not wait. Great video. I am doing research before I go ahead and make one! You are very pretty! And I can hear and understand you. Thank you for the video!
Love the peacock in the background. You have a wonderful talent. I enjoy your videos. You explain everything and make it easy to understand. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful items.
Your hair and face got to me first before I saw what I was looking for. I,d love to be like you when am grey. And you encourage me because you love what you do and what you do is beautiful. Love sewing so much. You,ve got you a new subbie.love your work.♥️
I love this video so, so much! You’re an excellent teacher, and you’ve made free-quilting so much less daunting for me than I’d thought it would be. Thank you so much!!! ☺️
Oh, thank you for this tutorial! I have been practicing very small circles and meandering, but it would take forever and about 10 spools of thread to do a lap quilt! This is a great idea for practicing on a lap quilt size! Let me finish my current project with the small circles and then I will try this idea next!
This video was published 1 and 1/2 years ago but it is still just as helpful today as brand new. I love this design and have used it several times and am refreshing my mind for another one today. Thank you for your efforts. Love your videos
LOVE LOVE This video...was looking for a beginner quilting stitch for a toddler quilt...My longarm quilter has retired so time to learn on my own . This seems perfect!
Laura, just adore watching your videos! You do a very good job explaining things in an easy to understand way. I will be tuning in often. Please do continue your teaching videos. Kath
Oh my!! I've been a hand quilter for the past 40+ years and have never done any machine quilting. I have so many unfinished tops! I might even try this!! 😊 thank you for making such a clear video. My mother was a seamstress and I learned the most when as an adult, I learned quilting....with a passion. When kids were getting busy I started knitting again and did that, then, with a passion. My house is now FULL with fabric and yarn. I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos! (and by the way, you're a gorgeous woman 😊)
I agree. You are an excellent teacher. I'm going to give this a try. Thank you again for your always excellent instructions. So glad I've subscribed to you.
I can only repeat what everyone has already said...You are, truly, a fantastic teacher. This tutorial could not have come at a better time. I have two quilts I wanted to do myself (they are small) but I did not know where to start. "C" 's it is!! Thank you so very much. I can not wait for your next amazing tutorial, they are so inspiring.
Wow- that's awesome, I'm first getting into quilting even though I learned to sew 54 years ago and do bridal and have my own business sewing and designing, but I never quilted before- I'm subscribing to your channel! :)
Please more videos like this where you show all the thought process of quilting. I think so many quilt tops don't get quilted because there's not more videos like this one. 💜🌞🌵
Hi Laura, I'm glad you said "it doesn't have to be perfect, just perfect for you". Thank you for using your BSR on your B 790 you make it look so easy! I'm going to try the C fmq. I just hope it comes out as good. Thank you again for this tutorial!
Your presentation style is excellent, and makes sense of the information one must tackle to become skilled enough to free motion quilt her/his own quilts. It is both joyful and hopeful to have found this wonderful site. Thank you profusely.
Gosh, I just found this video from two whole years ago (I am a subscriber) and appreciate it so much. I think you've given me the incentive to try quilting a beginner's quilt very soon using the double C stitch. Grateful!
Firstly I would like to thank you for sharing your skills, gifts, talents and knowledge on quilting as it has come a long way from hand quilting to machine quilting. I love the C's its so simple and awesome. You explain the technique very clearly with a soft voice this makes it ever so relaxing. I love making baby quilts for colleagues and friends. However, a local baby shop has asked me to show her a baby quilt I have made so maybe I could make a living from it. The quilt is gorgeous love the colours and very striking to the eye. Victoria
Thank you for taking the stress out of FMQ. I am a relative newbee and you have inspired me to try your "letter c" method. Great motivational teaching. Love it!
Imperfections are our beautiful way to add special touches that make a creative piece unique. That's art! Thank you for letting others know that creating is a gift of the heart from hands of love❤️
this was easy to follow and fun...!! I'm only just starting to learn and have not jet given any quilting a go but I feel inspired and think it may be possible for a novice like my self to make a quilt. Thank you
I like this method.. But That Is A Loud Machine! You have a very Unique way of teaching and speaking in your videos. I could listen to you all day! .... I agree about the fun! I'm on Quilt number 10 this year! Thanks You for all your help towards that!
I've never done a quilt but watching you do this it's just peeked my wanting to do one. I have an ordinary machine, but the tools are hard to come by. Thanks for this lovely tutorial.
+diana diamond I hope you do give this a try...and do not be hard on yourself! Mix up crazy colours and patterns. It is your quilt so have fun. Quilting is a great hobby! Learning as you go is half the fun, Thanks for watching and have a great day:)
Sew happy I have discovered your videos! Your teaching style is just right for me and I have already learned a few things that I will be putting into practice this week. Thank you!
Hello Laura! I love every tutorial you post; you always make things look so easy, and share all your knowledge. THANK you for that. You are a great small box full of surprises!!
I can't wait to try this design. New at machine quilting and I am going to buy an upgrade on my Brother machine. The one I have now the feed dogs don't drop. I can't do free motion quilting for that reason. Thank you for your video, you have explained it very well and have inspired me to try this design.
You make free motion quilting look achievable for even a beginner. The various pink fabrics on the front of the quilt are certainly pretty (and believe me, I love "all things pink"). But at 7:05 when you show the finished back of the quilt with the contrasting dark fuchsia thread - well, I think it's the prettiest part of the quilt! It has just the right touch of movement for interest, yet were I sitting in a comfortable chair I could see following the design with my eyes that would distract me me from the cares of the day, with a calming effect - perfect for a nap! In fact I could see making an entire bed quilt with just one fabric on the front and one different fabric on the back using this Double "C" design for quilting. I've got a number of 100% cotton new designer flat sheets (some in 200 thread count, and some in 300 thread ct or higher) in solids of tone on tone that I bought on sale years ago, thinking I would use them for quilt backings before I learned that many quilt instructors discourage using different thread counts for the front and back. But I may give this a try using two sheets with the same brand and thread count for both front and back and use my Schmetz 80/12 Microtex needles for the quilting. Perhaps I'll try it out on a baby quilt or a sofa throw first. Do you have any advice as to whether or not you think I'm using the right needle, etc? Or would you advise me to just donate the sheets and only make quilts that use traditional quilt fabric? Thanks, Laura.
+newbeequilter Yes a lot of people do not like to use sheets for the back. It is hard to quilt through. However I would use them to learn on. Your needle should be fine or you might need to go up a size 90/14. Start with small pieces. Have fun quilting on those sheets, you can now take the pressure off yourself and just go for it. If they don't turn out "Oh well" no loss but in the meant time will get experience. But please wash the sheets a few times before you quilt them. The one thing is that if the sheets are stiff ...use them just as sheets or the "learning to quilt thing" will not be fun. My first quilt I too used a sheet....and only once,! When you get to quilt a quilt with good cotton ...you will feel and see the difference. So use them to practice on and quilt your quilts with quilting cotton. thanks for asking :)
+SewVeryEasy Thank you SO much for taking the time to answer my questions about quilting with sheets. I may make a a basic duvet and pillowcases out of several; the rest I'll donate. You've convinced me that trying to quilt on sheeting fabric will not be enjoyable. I have plenty of quilt shop quality fabric in my stash - so even my practicing free motion quilting can be fun. Thanks for the good advice and saving me some frustration.
This is the first free motion quilting video that makes it very easy. Everybody knows how to draw a "C". :) I so enjoy your videos and glad I am subscribing. Thanks again

The best compliment I can give you is that I've watched this video at least 3 times. You're clear, concise and charming. Thank you!

By far probably one of THE most helpful videos on FMQ I've EVER seen!!!
You are an amazing teacher! Many people know what they know but cannot teach it to others. Your videos are fun, concise and oh so helpful!!! Thanks so much for sharing your gifts and talents.
thank you, and thank YOU for watching

O my gosh! Amazing. I’m just learning ...and you are my teacher! Again thank you! Smiles
I've never done a quilt but watching you do this it's just peeked my wanting to do one. I have an ordinary machine, but the tools are hard to come by. Thanks for this lovely tutorial.
+diana diamond I hope you do give this a try...and do not be hard on yourself! Mix up crazy colours and patterns. It is your quilt so have fun. Quilting is a great hobby! Learning as you go is half the fun, Thanks for watching and have a great day:)
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing. I am so hoping I can pull this off. It looks great!

Thank you, i love your no worry approach, calms me down knowing its not always perfect, I think i can do this!
glad to hear that, because you don't have to be perfect you just need to have fun:)
Thanks for taking your time. On teaching us. Can't wait to try this. I'm a newbie.
Love this letter C quilting! I'm hoping to try it very soon, thanks for sharing. You certainly are a great teacher!
Sew happy I have discovered your videos! Your teaching style is just right for me and I have already learned a few things that I will be putting into practice this week. Thank you!

As usual, a pleasure to watch, very effective Laura, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! thank you
I can't wait to try this design. New at machine quilting and I am going to buy an upgrade on my Brother machine. The one I have now the feed dogs don't drop. I can't do free motion quilting for that reason. Thank you for your video, you have explained it very well and have inspired me to try this design.
Glad to hear and enjoy your new machine :)
You make free motion quilting look achievable for even a beginner. The various pink fabrics on the front of the quilt are certainly pretty (and believe me, I love "all things pink"). But at 7:05 when you show the finished back of the quilt with the contrasting dark fuchsia thread - well, I think it's the prettiest part of the quilt! It has just the right touch of movement for interest, yet were I sitting in a comfortable chair I could see following the design with my eyes that would distract me me from the cares of the day, with a calming effect - perfect for a nap! In fact I could see making an entire bed quilt with just one fabric on the front and one different fabric on the back using this Double "C" design for quilting. I've got a number of 100% cotton new designer flat sheets (some in 200 thread count, and some in 300 thread ct or higher) in solids of tone on tone that I bought on sale years ago, thinking I would use them for quilt backings before I learned that many quilt instructors discourage using different thread counts for the front and back. But I may give this a try using two sheets with the same brand and thread count for both front and back and use my Schmetz 80/12 Microtex needles for the quilting. Perhaps I'll try it out on a baby quilt or a sofa throw first. Do you have any advice as to whether or not you think I'm using the right needle, etc? Or would you advise me to just donate the sheets and only make quilts that use traditional quilt fabric? Thanks, Laura.
+newbeequilter Yes a lot of people do not like to use sheets for the back. It is hard to quilt through. However I would use them to learn on. Your needle should be fine or you might need to go up a size 90/14. Start with small pieces. Have fun quilting on those sheets, you can now take the pressure off yourself and just go for it. If they don't turn out "Oh well" no loss but in the meant time will get experience. But please wash the sheets a few times before you quilt them. The one thing is that if the sheets are stiff ...use them just as sheets or the "learning to quilt thing" will not be fun. My first quilt I too used a sheet....and only once,! When you get to quilt a quilt with good cotton ...you will feel and see the difference. So use them to practice on and quilt your quilts with quilting cotton. thanks for asking :)
+SewVeryEasy Thank you SO much for taking the time to answer my questions about quilting with sheets. I may make a a basic duvet and pillowcases out of several; the rest I'll donate. You've convinced me that trying to quilt on sheeting fabric will not be enjoyable. I have plenty of quilt shop quality fabric in my stash - so even my practicing free motion quilting can be fun. Thanks for the good advice and saving me some frustration.
Glad I could help:) happy quilting
This is the first free motion quilting video that makes it very easy. Everybody knows how to draw a "C". :) I so enjoy your videos and glad I am subscribing. Thanks again
