I have done a couple of small wall hangings and potholders using FMQ meandering and stippling (that's as long as I can hold my breath and tense my shoulders without passing out), but nothing with patterns. And my two quilts were stitch in the ditch. One wall hanging I used a walking foot and outlined the picture for depth. And I agree that I want to do these myself - I feel like I cheat if I have not made the entire thing. Also I don't want to ruin the beauty of the fabric by drawing attention to the quilting design. I only want to do that if I have huge areas of solids or tone on tone. As I become experienced, I reserve the right as a woman to "change my mind" about everything I have said, though. lol.
