Free Motion Quilting Let's Chit Chat!

Tracing a design on tracing paper and placing it on a prepared quilt square of muslin fabric (front and back) and just practice, practice and practice some more. Eventually you will realize that you are pretty good at simple designs and will want to expand your talents. Wish you luck!

I am making some placemats, coasters and potholders to practice on.

I will second that! It was very intimidating to me but once I got the hang of it I love it!!!! I still do mostly stippling as that is what appeals to me just now and it's what I can do best, but I hope to get into more intricate stuff before long!
