Janny, I just experimented on a quilt for my dad:))Poor guy:))I found the faster I went, the tighter the stitches...slower made larger. Try this out on your practice piece and see if I am right. Machines do have regulators you can buy...but, I keep putting my money in more fabric instead:))If you can notice an obv. difference in the stitches by speed...then you know where to work....you feet:))LOL That is just a suggestion other then 'breathe'!!:))And, relax...Skeat

Keep in mind that you don't have to go fast...just at a steady smooth speed...and that is whatever is comfortable for you. I started on my old, old, old, Singer and got fairly comfortable with it. Now I'm learning all over again with my Bernina and the stitch regulator. I hate to admit that I'm much more comfortable stippling on my old Singer than my new machine. :oops:
