Free Motion Quilting on Domestic Sewing Machine

OK, I am practicing Free Motion Quilting.  It is working so great with my foot from Janome on my Bernina Machine.  I love it that it does not hop.  Yes, no hopping just gliding over the material.

I am practicing with just a sandwich of muslin and cotton batting.  No thread in top or bottom, just getting the movement and feeling

I discovered my Bernina has a half speed, it does help my go slowly and percise.  

I am going to see if I can take a video with my camera, I have a simple camera but maybe it will work.  I know my cell phone will not take good videos.  I am weird, I am not a cell phone person, I do not play games cause when I have time, I want to quilt.

I am going to put thread in soon and try Polyester Isacord.  I saw on Leah Days site she likes the way it works. Many will not use polyester, but I have found it is stronger and especially Isacord.  When I get better, I will use the King Tut  and better quality.  

I am trying size 14 needle first, they say that is what works.  I am also going to try one color on top and another in the bobbin to see how tension works.
