Also, Hollyanne Knight does a free motion quilting academy and a whole cloth mini-quilt is required to graduate. HollyAnne’s website is here: https://www.stringandstory.com. One of her students posted this blog about the whole cloth project: http://www.blossomheartquilts.com/20...th-mini-quilt/

I graduated from the Fall 2020 Cohort of HollyAnne Knight's FMQA. I took the plunge and gave myself a birthday present and started on a 12 week journey. I was not even able to do a meander when I started but with HollyAnne's instructions and encouragement I finished. You make a sampler quilt with 30 motifs and then design and quilt a wholecloth quilt at least the size of a fat quarter. If you go to her YouTube channel you can find videos of the graduation projects completed, some are simple others very elaborate. The nice thing about her program is if you don't finish in 12 weeks you roll into the next group/groups until you do graduate at no additional cost and you have access to all the learning videos forever. I have attached my sampler and wholecloth as examples. There are lots of classes and videos that are out there but this one clicked for me.
