Machine Quilting Pebbles - A Video

I've had a lot of you ask to see me quilting.
So I decided to make a little video.
Quilting Pebbles is my go-to. I love them for background fillers and adding texture.
Did you like the video?

  1. I have been thinking about trying this! It almost always looks good on a quilt, but now I just wish I had a longarm, it looks SOOO much easier!

  6. That is awesome Natalia! I have a question - does the youtube play back at normal speed? If so, I am amazed how fast you are!!
    I have done this on small pieces and it uses a lot of thread. Do you use a lot more thread with pebbles? Love the look.

  9. I love pebbles, they had such dimension especially on quilts with simple piecing and lots of open space. And you do it effortlessly!

  12. Good golly Miss Natalia!!! I could watch you quilt all day! That is amazing how much precision you have at retracing the pebble lines, I would have double lines all over the place if I were to do that! Your skill is just unreal! I don't have a longarm, but maybe I can try that with my regular machine, would take TONS of practice I'm sure though!

  14. Nice filler idea. I was watching the way the needle was humming along, lol. I am still practicing speed and stitch length, so fun to see a long arm do it.

  17. Thank you! I'm am about to use pebbling on a quilt and I have been scouting about for a demo, just to remind me as I'm not a highly experienced free motioner. And your sewing machine sure is fast!

  19. So very pretty Natalia! The pebbles give it such GREAT texture!! Wishin' I had a longarm--ah well a girl can dream!

  20. Gosh, the longarm makes it look sooo easy, but I know that looks can be deceiving and that it is more complicated than it appears. Thanks for showing us... please post more... Loved it!

  21. Did you do that one handed? ;o) My heck you're fast! Very cool. Loved the video. Makes me want a long arm, even more!

  22. That was awesome to watch. I don't know how you do it. I would get lost along the way and get off rhythm...it would turn out a total mess! Wish I had a longarm, and I wish I was able to do that!

  23. That was beautifully amazing. Truly a gift. Do your arms get tired? Do you get dizzy? Do you happen to have any helpful suggestions for us trying to learn on a regular machine? Maybe you have addressed these things on your Tuesday chats. Hopefully i can someday take part in one. Thanks for sharing.

  24. Love the video! I have been wanting to try some free motion quilting on my regular machine...but am a little nervous! How do you stay relaxed when you quilt?

  25. You should make that into a screen saver. I was hypnotized. You make it look easy!
