Free Motion Couching AND Ruler Foot Quilting!

I’ve reached that special stage with Double Stripe Diamond quilt on the longarm where I just want it DONE. The honeymoon phase is over. I’m over it.

When I begin feeling this way, it’s usually a sign I’m bored. I’ve been playing with different quilting designs on this quilt for weeks and while it’s pretty and I’m happy with it, it’s just started to become no fun.

So I attached a new foot I’ve been wanting to play with and grabbed some chunky hand dyed yarn and I’ve taken off on a free motion couching adventure!

This fun technique is made possible thanks to the 9 Piece Foot Set for the Grace Qnique which includes different bases you can click on and use to create different effects on your quilt.

I love free motion couching, and this foot set comes with 3 different bases for this technique. I’m using the base with the smallest hole and worsted weight yarn.

I honestly don’t know how well this couching will wear on the quilt, but this is the perfect quilt to test it with because it’s destined to be my table cloth and will be washed at least once a week.

Let’s go quilt,
