I've always wanted to do Free Motion Quilting, but have always been scared to try it. Something about having to dictate the stitch length and direction seemed very scary, so this challenge seemed to be the perfect place to start.
The challenge for this month was to try a leaf shape. I watched the video and it seemed so easy, so I prepared my sandwich and took the plunge.

I think that free motion quilting is one of the hardest skills to master.
I am very impressed with your leaves.
You have done a great job.
Your first go at the free motion quilting? WOW! You work is really good.
Your leaves look good! Is that the last of the flower fabric?
They turned out very nice. I have never done any of it and probably won't anytime soon. Keep up the good work.
I think that is really pretty. I would not even know how to set my machine up for that. You are inspirational...wish you lived closer to inspire me a bit more rofl xx
Practice is what it is all about and having the confidence to just go for it. You have made a very good start.
This is interesting. I think I like it best on the lighter color. It shows off the stitches better.
You are so brave...free motion quilting gives me the heebies! I shall have to master it at some point this year...just not yet! ;-)
Your first try is really good! And as with anything else, practice makes it so much easier.
