Book excerpt: Discover how to design and stitch beautiful machine quilting with the walking foot on your home sewing machine. Intimidated by free-motion machine quilting? You don’t need it to beautifully machine-quilt your own tops. Well-known teacher Mary Mashuta’s classroom-tested methods guarantee quilting success. Mary teaches you to use heavier-weight threads on the top of your machine, rather than in the bobbin, so that all your stitching is done on the right side of the quilt. • Learn to combine the right needles, threads, and batting to create exactly the look you want • Add style to your machine quilting with heavy-weight threads and your machine’s built-in decorative stitches • Use paper folding and cutting to create your own simple quilting motifs and border designs • Learn to adapt commercial templates and stencils into quilting motifs
