Do you have a stitch regulator?

    Absolutely lovely work all around.

    Here is my secret for quilting on a sit-down machine. It sure helps me maneuver the quilt and saves my shoulders and arms.
    It came with a stitch regulator in the form of a magnet that goes under the quilt, but I hated it so don't use it. After practice I can get consistently even stitches. Thanks for your kind replies.
