Free Motion Quilting

This was my first attempt at putting the layers together, love having helpers.

I had my first go at free motion quilting this morning. I did a bit of practice last night and read a book and jumped right in. 

I am a sort of a learn by doing type of girl.  I am rather pleased with how it turned out and it can only get better with practice. 

I have sent a couple of quilts off and they have come back with stars on them. I did a bit of drawing on paper to see how it would flow and a way I went. 

I have a couple of other quilt tops ready to go, so just need to come up with a design for them. I found it a lot more enjoyable than I thought I would. It requires a bit of muscle moving the top around but it is well worth the feeling of satisfaction.
