Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Free Motion Quilting a Sampler »

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Home

Style: Whimsical, Retro / Vintage


Materials

Hideaway by Lauren and Jessie Jung for Moda and a background fabric from Lakehouse.

What was your inspiration?

I had made the quilt top with the Craftsy BOM, but was not sure how to quilt it. Then Leah's course became available and as I have been trying to learn how to free motion quilt, I signed up. I had Leah's voice in my head as I was quilting, everything made sense at last.

What are you most proud of?

Having a very ' quilted' quilt at the end, something I've only achieved with hand quilting before.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Take your time and don't worry about any little errors!

Finish a BOM the same year you start it? I've never heard of such a thing. LOL!

Thank you, the background is actually a print, but it's white on white and doesn't show up in the photos.

You really are an inspiration! It's lovely, and you finished so quickly too! I hope you are very proud of yourself, because you should be - not just excellent piecing but your FMQ is great!
