Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Design It, Quilt It: Free-Form Techniques »

Instructions

nope, just doodling with the machine...I am always doodling on paper, and learning to translate to fabric. I see this as the center of my Diamond in Square baby quilt at some point...twisted variation on traditional.
Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Other

Style: Funky

Materials

again, cotton muslin, cotton batting, poly thread...

What was your inspiration?

endless doodling, especially if I am on the telephone! :)

What are you most proud of?

getting more consistent with side-to-side and backwards, getting stitch lengths more even...never tried free-motion so a little daunting, but practice is fun!

When you get over perfectionism, you will have all sort of fun things happen just by themselves. People look at things as a whole. They don't look for every little bobble. And when there eye sees one there mind corrects it so their consciousness doesn't see it. Try for the best you can do and you will have much more fun. Free yourself for happy accidents. Sometimes I go back and I can't find that "wrong" place on my own things. If I put things away for a few days, I look at them more with the eye of a viewer not a maker. Good luck

Getting better about it already...if I can't find it in a day, no one else will be looking for it! Meanwhile, thankful for tools, ends of batting, fabric paints, and stash of fabrics with which to explore this new medium!

Thanks, Deb! I am so trying to get over perfectionism (not that I ever attained it!), and loosening up with this whole deal! So cool to see what you all do, and to be so inspired! xoxo!
