Machine Quilting.....

My favorite part of "quilting" is the actual machine quilting of the quilt. Before I started longarming I quilted with my domestic sewing machine - my Husqvarna Viking - there was no stitch regulation then, but now many machines have stitch regulation and that makes quilting so much easier. I teach machine quilting on a domestic machine at a LQS - and I love it when a student catches the same quilting fever I have.

I was looking around YouTube and found some great tutorials on machine quilting

These two videos are from Nicole Webb. I had the pleasure of taking a longarm class from her last October and what a tremendously lovely lady! and I learned a lot also
