Free Motion Friday! on Friday!

Excuse me I am a serious FM quilter now!


This week I drew...








I even sewed with empty needle on paper...








Then I donned the gloves - fetching are they not?








and I sewed....










Has the preparation made a difference ?  Oh yes I think so!  I was slightly freaking out about this one hence all the prep!  But I think this is my best attempt yet - hurrah!


I may even make a mini mug rug out of this one!  Bit of binding and it is done!


Of course a serious FM quilter such as I needs to link up with the ever-delightful Cindy for Free Motion Friday !




Hahaha!  Did you get through all that thinking I was serious about being serious or were you smirking too!


Well serious or not I will be dooddling some stomach lining this week - horrid title but pretty pattern!   Will you be joining in the doodling?

  4. You nailed this pattern! Great job! I find doodling really helps, but I generally don't doodle straight lines. I'm looking forward to stomach lining!

  12. Oh!!! WOW!!!! You've really inspired me to have a go, watching everyones improvement is fantastic. It makes me believe that it might be possible for me to get better, then I could have some variety from straight line quilting...
