I vote for anything Sharon Schamber does. She teaches with such clarity!

I still think Sharon Schamber has the best. Have you tried right clicking and saving the videos to your computer and then running them rather than trying to watch online? Might make them work, and you can go back and rewatch the relevant parts.

After buying several books and DVD's, I bought Machine Quilting Solutions by Christine Maraccini. This one answered questions (even some I hadn't thought to ask) I couldn't find the answer to elsewhere!

Patsy Thompson's videos are terrific, but she has many, and I don't know if there is ONE which is the obvious place to start. Her videos tend to concentrate on various designs versus the nuts and bolts of how to begin machine quilting.

Alex's friend, Paula (with the green hair(?) - I'm not sure I remember her last name) has a good video out that covers all the basics. It is very helpful about how to manage the bulk of the quilt, etc.

Anna, definitely get the Patsy Thompson DVDs. They helped me so much. I have some books also but I watched the DVDs while I was at the machine and did what she was doing on a practice sandwich. Good luck.

I have several small quilt tops made for my GS and want to quilt them myself. Can you recommend any books, DVDs available. I tend to be a VISUAL learner so I am really into DVD.

I have tried viewing Sharon Shambers video but my computer/ internet connection is toooooo slow. I have tried ordering her DVD on line but it seems to be out of stock right now... I am looking for other DVD that explain the basics.

ANY RECOMMENDATIONS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I saw the posts on on Patsy Thompson so I am going to see if I can order get those... but I would like more information.

Thanks
