I did a workshop recently and was told about McTavashing, -- i have been doodling with pencil and paper. Just have to now practice practice !!

just lovely. I have a new midarm that I am trying to learn so I am impressed when someone has tamed a machine

I first heard about McTavishing in my very first ever freemotion quilting class at my LQS about 2 years ago. We didn't get time to try it then, but I liked the look of it, so I ordered my first book by Karen McTavish. I got her "Custom Curves" book recently, and just yesterday, ordered the "Secrets of Elemental Quilting". I find her books and DVD's MOST helpful in getting me going on this!!!

Thanks Mandy. I'd HIGHLY recommend this book and video to anyone who's interested in this technique!

What do I think? I think you do fabulous work. I am lucky to stitch in the ditch. I pay for someone to quilt my quilts and they are not nearly as nice as this. Do you quilt for others?

I do quilt for my daughter, but she's starting to do her own with her new machine now, and I'm going to do a horse show ribbon quilt for a friend this winter....But mostly I do this for myself and family because I enjoy it. I don't have a long arm, and don't want to feel like I need to make a profit.
