I have found quilting patterns online that I could draw on my own, usually adding my own personal swirls or curls. I can then transfer that drawing to a piece of plastic to cut out and use for a template....then marking the pattern with a washable marker. It is a bit of work, but if your fmq skills require some assistance like mine do, then using a stencil/template is a good option. I can usually see what I want to do in my mind, but transferring that picture to the quilt via fmq never turns out quite like the vision....LOL.
