That is such a good idea too! I have to try this. Thanks for posting the reply.

I used tissue paper to free motion a flower design I drew on the tissue paper and it worked really well. It was really easy to remove.

p.s. My favourite book for choosing quilting designs is ....Shape by Shape by Angela Walters.


I like this idea.
