Freedom in FMQ
Quilting outside the lines, as it were. That's what FMQ, free motion quilting, feels like. No longer relegated to stitching in the ditch, which I never quite did anyway. I've a long way to go before I can count FMQ as being in my skill set, either, but I think it will be my favorite method for quilting, once I can get my stitches regulated. I think I like the white on white of the above better than the white on plaid. It's the same piece, just flipped.
If you want to know more about FMQ, do a web search for Leah Day or Free Motion Quilting Project. She has posted videos, tutorials, and designs. She also has a quilting supply shop, which she operates.
