Learn It

Free Motion Quilting a Sampler »

Instructions

I really enjoyed this class, and even though your stitches might be all over the place....like mine were! and sometimes still are!!
just keep going, dont stop, all of a sudden it will just click into place.
keep your samples, and when its all going wrong for you, look at them and see how far you've come.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Cute


Materials

scraps

What was your inspiration?

Leah Day, the teacher.
She was just sooo super confident that you could do it, if you practised, that it made me whant to finish my quilt thats been haning around waiting to be finishedfor ever!!!

What are you most proud of?

the free hand quilting, I've never done it before, allways thought you had to have a special machine but you can do it in your domestic!!!
The binding......it just makes it look sooooo good, can't belive how easy it was to do.....but then isn't everything when you have been shown especially by such talanted teachers.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

go for it......its fun

Don't be afraid..... I've been sewing for a very long time but it was my first time doing free motion quilting......I was terrible!!! My stitches were everywhere , but I just kept practicing, and one day it just happened !! You can doit just practice and take your time....look forward to seeing the end result. :) practice,practice,practice and enjoy

I like your first work with free quilting. Your stiches look nice. I will do it with my quilt but i,m afraid that is too difficult.
