I took a free motion quilting class 4 yrs ago while I was pregnant with my son. I think that I had a machine that I could not drop the feed dogs. Not sure... I've since moved on to a "real" machine :-D

So... the first picture is my attempt at FMQ - possibly with the feed dogs up (which would explain how very bad it is!)

The next pictures are within the last month. I was dragging my feet FMQ'ing my DD's quilt b/c of fear. What if it comes out cruddy? Then I told myself that she don't care what the quilting looks like - I just need to do it. So I did!

4 years ago - man it looks terrible!

More experimenting inside the feathers. Once you get going, it's really fun!

FMQ on the border fabric - tried to follow the flower lines already there.
