Thanks for the posting. I really struggle with(and can't seem to get) FMQ despite dozens of practice squares, so am happy for any help I can get. Let's just say that it's not a talent that comes naturally for me ! I know --- PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE !!!

I have been making scrappy placemats to practice my free motion quilting. These will really help! Thanks for the link.

Thanks for this. I am just starting to learn to FMQ and I dont want all stippling, so this gives me a lot to play with.

Thanks for that site! I am not quite a beginner at FMQ, but have only done a few different things. There were a lot of great ideas here & they actually look do-able!
