I had to buy a book on FMQ patterns - I am not creative with comming up with new patterns on my own. I love mixing up lots of patterns for one project - like a zen tangle. Show me some fMQ!! ------ Drag queen quilter!

Jennifer Hill Advanced AB CANADA Member since 4/11/02 Posts: 1476	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 3/2/12 6:34 PM Has anyone else signed up for this 12-Month FMQ challenge? I missed January, but because Feb had 29 days this year, I got an entry in at the last minute on Wednesday. The Jan and Feb tutorial exercises are still accessible, but March's will disappear at the end of the month. I figured this would be a useful way to practice a few more designs than I would get to on my own, and there is something about a deadline that motivates me, even if it is at the absolute last minute. February's guest contributor was Diane Gaudynski. Here is my adaptation of her feathers. Jennifer in Calgary

This is the kind of true free motion quilting I would love to perfect. I am still so much in the practice stage that I feel like I'll never get there... ------ Janome MC6600 Bernina 240 Juki MO735 Singer 201-2 Singer 221-1 Singer 15-91

But I will never be good, but I will have fun. And no competitions or contests for me please....that just sucks the life out of it all....for me. Portland - you have a great start on that quilt! Excellent start - you know that the main thing with learning is to start and not be shy, and I think you have that part aced! -- Edited on 3/2/12 8:58 PM -- ------ "Be kind whenever possible.

I am willing to settle for mediocre, because, after all, in the land of the blind the one-eyed free motion quilter is queen - no one in my house will think less of me for my fmq! ------ Barb

That's for posting that, Warbler. It's gorgeous, exactly the sort of thing I want to do, but realistically doubt I'll ever approach. ------ 🌸 Plenty of machines, mostly Berninas 🌸
