    Default FMQ class with Laura A Cunningham

    We had a fantastic FMQ class today with national teacher Laura A Cunningham. She has a great sense of humor to make the class fun. She would draw a few FMQ designs and then we would practice them. She says she practices for 15 minutes every time she sits down at her machine. And this is an amazing whole cloth quilt she did.

    There were lots of one-shoed quilters seen about the room today. LOL

    What fun. Classes are so worth the time. I bet you learned a lot and with the laughs it is even more special.

    That is some amazing quilting. You are so lucky to have the opportunity to take a FMQ class. Sounds like you definitely benefited from it. If free motion quilting is something one wants to master, the more you do it or are exposed to it and learn various techniques the better you will become-I'm happy for you :-)

    Absolutely beautiful. Oh, to be able to do that! I try and try but my doodles do not turn out any where near that... but, I will keep trying. I am glad your class was wonderful. I like those kind of classes.
