The Flower Meander: A Machine Quilting Tutorial 

Your quilting tutorials give me so much confidence. I love that you talk about how to ease through mistakes so no one else is going to notice.

I watch your videos over again to imprint the designs on my brain. I like this flower design with your echoing. It looks so good!

LOVE THE PRINCIPLES USED WHEN LOOPING!... WILL WORK FOR MY NEW QUILT TOP. (The baby shower attendees will be impressed.)

I like the fact that you continue to machine quilt with your sewing machine or a sit down machine. Not all of us have a long arm or will ever get a long arm on a frame.

I never get tired of your videos!

I could watch you quilt all day, you are so smooth, great instructions.. Keep up the good Tutorial...

I got stuck today and my husband said from the kitchen, “Echo!” Hahahahaha love love love watching your channel

I love to watch all your videos. Thank you for giving of your precious time so that us quilters can learn so much from you. It amazing to watch you and you make free motion look so beautiful and so interesting.ThANK YOU S0 MUCH.

I love your videos. They give me the confidence to challenge myself and grow. Thank you for your kindness in sharing your talent and skills.

Love it. Between this and the paisley feathers, you have a new sub. I’m a new quilter, and would rather quilt my own creations rather than sending them off for someone else to have all the fun!

Angela you have given me so many ways to quilt lately and I'm really learning how to do a better job. Mostly my tops were just meandering but recently I have been watching you and have learned so much. Thank you for making the time to show us that we're stuck in only one stitch.

Love it! I made your t-shirt quilt with the secondary design. Everyone loves it! Now I need to get the nerve to quilt it.

First time watcher - wow, I'm getting back to quilting and appreciate your kind words. I stopped quilting for many years after going to a class at the local night school offering classes. They left us "newbies" (although we had all sewn many years, new to quilting) after a few instructions. After a 1/2 hr or so the teacher, and others who had quilted "perfectly enough to show," came to our side of the room to see if we needed help - and did we get it! They nit picked all of our work, so harshly, one sewer left, two never came back and I went to one more class. "No, no, rip it out, it is not perfect!" and more you can imagine, so for years I did only simple squares, rag quilting, but nothing with a sewn design or even a design in my piece work. Only simple. I missed sooooo much and wish I'd heard your beautiful words before. At 65, I've started back up, and will be following you. I will NEVER again let Comparison be my thief of joy! Happy Thanksgiving day!!! And, thank you for your kindness.

BAM!!! Another great FMQ stitch!!! Love it!

You are so clever! Thanks for sharing your passion and tips so we can all quilt along with you!!!

I love your instructions. Thank you so much!

I just love all of your tips and ideas, I’m a fairly new quilter and I really appreciate your videos

I love love the different flower variations.

Love your tutorials sweetie! Thank you for sharing your love of quilting! A friend just gave me a used Tin Lizzie long arm that didn't fit in her craft room. I am playing around with and it seems to be running well with the help of my sweet hubby an excellent mechanical guy! I am making quilts for a baby ministry currently and have sewn for about 45 years. I just started my quilt journey about 4 years ago. Loving your tutorials!

Thanks so much. Totally new to FMQ. Any quilting in fact! Just did my first attempt at meandering. OMG! That was hard. I had little to no control. It was a mess! But not so messy it destroyed my cushion cover I made from recycled clothing. In fact the cushion is useful and to anyone without 'an eye' it will look fine. Just don't look close! But my main point I wanted to share is how much fun it was - when I wasn't panicking because my machine was doing its own ugly thing, and when I felt out of control and completely lost sight of any semblance of a design concept. I now know why you love it. It can be such fun. Doodling on fabric! I know with practise I'll improve - all thanks in large part to your videos. So thank you. Thank you🌸

I'm hopelessly addicted to your FMQ tutorials! They are so entertaining. I watch them, try them and get oh so happy when something actually turns out close to what you've done! Thanks much for sharing your knowledge!

Thank you Angela for great instructions and beautiful work. {bravery is not my strong suit, but with your help, I am slowly free motion quilting.)

I love the flower meander with the many variations. I will definitely use this in one of my future quilts.

Ah, I’m inspired to try this today on my longarm. I purchased a used Handiquilter sixteen 6 months ago and am in a love/hate relationship with it. I would like to see you create more longarm videos demonstrating techniques. You keep me centered and realistic about my progress and want to send you a big hug and “thank you”.

Angela, I sure do wish I had the nerve to quilt flowers in a contrasting color like you did. I love those colors together!! lol

Just used the flower meander on a quilt block. Hesitated at first, then after a deep breath or two, dug in. Now I love it! Thanks Angela!

This motif is perfect for me - even I would think I was good. Thank you so much for the lessons.

Another fabulous design Angela...you are spoiling us 😘

Love all the variations. Thank you.

Excelente! I’ll try that! Thank you! Best wishes from Brazil!

Love love love this! Thank you sooo much Angela ❣️❣️

Great idea and you are very easy to follow! Thank you!

Love it. Again you make it look effortless

Off to the machine to try it, many thanks, love from New Zealand xxxx

Great video. I really liked the commentary as you quilted!

I loved the instructions and the design. Even I use a longarm machine, the instruction works for me. Thanks,.

With your videos and some practice, I might just learn how to do this. YOU make the whole process fun. Thank you.

I just reviewed this video and found it very inspiring.

This tutorial was really very helpful. I really want to quilt this design on a project I made for my sister. Thank you!!!

I love this flower meander. I'l be trying it in my next quilt.

Thank you for sharing! Love your teaching style! 🍷

I really enjoy your videos. The pace is fast enough that I don’t get bored and yet, slow enough that I can understand the technique. I will be practicing this pattern because it looks great for all of the floral fabrics that I tend to use...and yes, I love the “organic” look of it! Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge with all of us.

Just love this flower pattern, the last one is my favorite I think.....just starting to longarm again, so tickled. I was house bound from last Oct. Dr's finally came to diagnosis of a condition that started Feb of 2016. Ended up to be very rare for a woman to encounter it and men are 1%. Some end up in a wheelchair or worse. We thought it was was MS,, but it wasn't. The term for us to understand it was a diabetic stroke. I had a severe case.....extreme pain in hips and then weakness in the legs.....even collapsing on the floor....so wheelchair and walker came into my busy life.......I am now in PT and I am getting up stairs with help....and I longamred a pattern on a quilt I made for my sister........so I am excited to be able o have stamina to quilt for a short time and then rest and then quilt and then rest, over and over......I want to put this flower on a Cross and Crown Quilt top I made after I sewed again starting in February......a mystery....especially for this advid quilter!! it is all a fog to me..but Thanks.....I do love your designs and I feel that I do love you too!!! Thanks!!

I can't wait to practice this design. You certainly know what I need, more designs to add to my arsenal. Thank you again ANGELA.

I anxiously wait everyday to see if you have a new video! I love all of your designs. When I grow up, I want to be "like Angela!" Thanks for sharing your expertise!

Love this! Again thanks for sharing! 😊😊

Excellent design. Definitely trying this.

Love this design. Can't wait to try it. Thank you!

I love your videos. I love the way you point out the don'ts as well as the do's. That's really helpful in understanding what one needs to do to execute the motif well. I also love the variations and how you teach us to get out of corners. Your videos are so instructive. I love the way you freeze the video when you are talking about a specific thing you want us to pay attention to. Thanks for your attention to detail and amazing instruction.

Your videos are so helpful. Thanks
