Made this for my daughter for her birthday next week. Have made this previously for myself, but fabric wasn't right. This chambray was so much better. Let's hope she likes it??!! lol. 🧵🪡🧵🪡

I've got a bother innov-a80, even with a walking foot it feels so difficult to quilt with! I feel like the feed dogs are barely doing anything and I have to put a lot of effort into moving the fabric myself... 😕 I really want to try some patterned stitching and free hand quilting but it's really putting me off.
Do I need a better machine or am I doing something wrong 🤷🏻♀️

I am definitely no expert having only quilted a glasses case type thing, but I am wondering if you can lower the feed dogs on your machine?
If so you might find free motion quilting easier.

I'm currently reading The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey and in Mabel makes the girl a beautiful blue boiled wool coat, with a fur trim collar and embroidered snowflakes all down the front and back. It sounds so beautiful and I can see it so clearly

I've just finished a second pair of pj pants for my daughter and they were just screaming for this label
she's nearly 16, autistic so she has sensory issues, labels go on the outside in our house lol
CJ is home educating and has started a trend in her maths and English group she goes to- I picked her up before Xmas and six other girls were wearing pj pants to the group! 🤣🤣🤣
