Thanks for the history lesson Holice ... good to learn more about the transition from hand quilting to machine work.
I know there is a big-wide-wonderful-world of FMQ beyond meandering.
The challenge is learning the how-to's and finding those places to help me gain the knowledge ... and then it;s all about the practice, practice, practice ... to make it part of my comfort zone!
To answer your question .....

Being part of the QB, we do have an added advantage to those who do not participate. When I see something I think I might be able to do, I keep tabs of it for FMQ reference ideas.
Though even here on the QB, I think we could see more about the "how to's" of FMQing designs. Perhaps those that have the ability would share via some tutorials?
