Today is Free Motion Quilting Friday over at Leah Day's Free Motion Quilting Project.
The rules are simple:
- Link up with a post that features something about Free Motion Quilting (FMQ).
- Somewhere in your post, you must link back here, or you can just post the FMQF button in your sidebar.
- Comment on at least a few of the other FMQF links. Share your love of free motion quilting and make this weekly link up a fun way to connect!
This was the first one, and I decided to turn it into a little pillow for the bench by the front door. It looks so spring-y, doesn't it?
I didn't use any specific design, but just added leaf shapes to the outside and a viny, veiny looking thing in the middle.
It was quilted with the green thread that kept giving me problems on Twin Engine but there wasn't a single hitch. More proof that it was not the thread, but possibly the spray baste and/or the feed dogs being down.
What are you quilting this week?

Omgosh this is GORGEOUS! I love it. I badly want to make some pillows but I get confused as to what size to make them... oh well.
ReplyDeleteI love the leaf and I really love your FMQ, I hope that my FMQ is that good some day!
I am math challenged as well sometimes so solved this problem by stuffing it with fiber fill instead of using a pillow form. LOL!
DeleteOh - I love the leaf quilting around it. So cool!
ReplyDeleteNice pillow - like the way you have used the leaves :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week end.

Love your use of different threads. I have to get away from just using matching thread to the fabric. Thanks for sharing.
