I have been terrified of free motion quilting. I made it a goal though to learn it and conquer my fear. I decided to with this quilt. I had practiced in the past, only to end up throwing a big fit and throwing my practice fabric under the table and running away hiding. Apparently I forgot all this and just dived right in on this quilt. First I attempted loopy lines. They were fine, but I didn't love it with this quilt. So, I unpicked 2 rows the entire length of the quilt. Needless to say, I am a pro at unpicking. ;) Then I decided to do some stippling. OMG! It turned out! Woohoo! You have no idea how happy I am that together, me and my sewing machine conquered our worst fear!
Stippling
Here's the front. Pardon my iPhone pictures...my memory card on my camera is full and I have yet to take my 4,000 pictures to be developed. ;)
I'm hoping to get this finished this weekend. I'll post more pictures when it's complete! :)
Happy Friday!
I like the pattern that you used.
