Just wanted to share
 

I've hand quilted for a few years but only recently started to FMQ and oh boy do I love it. Just finished a couple of lap quilts for my nieces, the blue one was a simple D9p but the other one was all English hand pieced, I kind of like to have something to piece infront of the tv at night. This was my first attempt at FMQ other than having practised for weeks. I am most definitely hooked on it now.

I like how you've set the different blocks, inspires me to see what I can do with all my "leftover" blocks from past projects, good job

Lovely quilts! This may be the year I give FMQ a try. I've been afraid of it. Thanks for sharing your pictures. Very inspiring!

Both quilts are lovely.

Very pretty, the 2nd is my favorite.

Both are very pretty. I hope to do a large quilt in the near future. I have just begun quilting and these beautiful quilts are an inspiration.

Both quilts are very pretty. Nice quilting!!!

Very nice. I am just starting to FMQ myself and love it!

beautiful quilts! congrats on the fmq

Both are just beautiful. I have practiced some free motion, but not ready to try on projects yet.

Beautiful quilts. You did great quilting on them.

Beautiful :)

Both are beautiful and good luck with your FMQ. I have been wanting to give it a try, but I don't know how to drop the feed dogs as my machine is not a new one. I have read about putting the card board under the needle with the hole in it, but I am afraid to try it for fear I will mess up the machine. Oh, maybe one day. Good luck with your FMQ, looks like your are on your way.

Beautiful quilts! Thanks for sharing them here.

Both of them are beautiful! Great work! Tell me please, what is english hand piecing? Thanks!

Beautiful quilts and Beautiful quilting, Great Job, keep on FMQ it seems to be working for you:thumbup:

Those are beautiful, great colors.

I love them

Beautiful, love them both:thumbup:

I am going to try fmq and this inspires me to just dive in. those quilts are beautiful

I also enjoy FMQ, but can't do anything outside of meandering and swirls. I tried the feathers, but that didn't go well. Maybe I will give it another whirl soon. Your quilts are really pretty. I especially LOVE the second one....great job.

Very innovative block placement. I especially like the second one and the blocks in it. I really admire anyone who hand-pieces.

Very pretty quilts, like the mix of patterns and layout.

I could not see the first quilt, there was a small block with an X in it, the 2nd quilt is lovely, I love the the reds and what looks like avacado. very pretty

Very Nice!!!!!

I love FMQ. I just sometimes wish I had a machine with a longer arm. The part I dislike is having to reposition the quilt so often.

Really nice. FMQ isn't all that hard if you have the right equipment. A walking foot is essential and a good strong machine is next. Patience is a must!!!!!!

Keep going and you'll become very proficient at it.

Nice job!!

gorgeous! Love the colores

Both are inspiring and beautiful!

Love the quilts and quilting. Great job.

They are both lovely!!!

Your quilts are beautiful and your FMQ finishes them wonderfully.

Both are beautiful, my favorite is with the green and beige

-What a nice choice of fabrics. I especially liked the maroon border one. Did you use stencils for the border? I made the mistake of using blue pounce powder for white sashing and had to wash the quilt. It never looked that good after that.

Great job! And what an inspiration for us all!

beautiful quilts.

Beautiful.Love them.

Your work is beautiful. I too am a new FMQ I like doing the hand quilting too, but I think their is a place for both. I found a class on " craftsy" for $29.99 that teaches some great tips and techniques for FMQ and I have learned a lot. I am doing SOOO much better now.
