Wow that is really nice

I am taking her class too, but you are much more advanced. I agree with you, practice and then practice some more. I love her as an instructor. She is so relaxed and seems to have a good handle on what we need to know. I like how she shows her completed work, so you know where you're going, and then she teaching you what you need to know to get there. Your work is beautiful! I would give you an A+ in the class.

Are you sure you're not the one teaching the class? Looks like you should be. That's beautiful.

calicojoan 01-03-2013 05:05 AM

Wow, that's great!

tymia 01-03-2013 05:52 AM

That is beautiful. How in the world did you do it? Did you have a pattern, or something? I can't imagine what mine would look like free form. Please explain what you did, it is gorgeous.

Sewfine 01-03-2013 06:02 AM

Wow!! that is awesome. Just love FMQ. I am still practicing. Thanks for sharing, what an inspiration.

Karen G 01-03-2013 06:46 AM

I'd say you deserve an A+ on your homework!

Nope, no pattern, but the info in Cindy Needham's class got me pointed in the right direction. This piece is totally free form, and I just made it up as I went along. She demonstrates how to "divide and concur" open spaces and teaches how to do circles, curves and lines to fill it in. If you are wanting to learn these techniques, I'd highly recommend her class.

Wow! Great job you should be proud

BuzzinBumble 01-03-2013 08:17 AM

Wendy, you are a FMQ genius and your work is always so inspiring!

I like your playtime, wish I could play that good.

Lori S 01-03-2013 08:52 AM

What an impressive "homework" assignment! You are a fabulous FM Quilter! Maybe if someone sprinkles fairy dust on me I might be able to accomplish similiar.

TexasT 01-03-2013 08:54 AM

Just awesome FMQ!

anicra 01-03-2013 06:02 PM

What a wonderful job!! I did the Beyond Basic Machine quilting with Ann Peterson and loved it. I've also signed up for Machine Quilting Negative Spaces and then i want to tackle the class you took. Your quilt is inspiring!! Thanks for sharing.

Auntie Em 01-03-2013 06:07 PM

All I can say: WOW!!!

jeanharville 01-03-2013 07:12 PM

Thanks so much for sharing your "homework". I've just finished my 1st FMQ as a Christmas gift for DH. I'm hoping a year from now I'll be able to see good improvement. There's certainly room for it. Your work is inspiring and gives me hope that I can make lovely FMQ on my DSM. Just want to mention that I take lots of Craftsy classes and love their method. A wonderful resource for us quilters and other crafters.

nstitches4u 01-03-2013 07:33 PM

Wow! And you are a student??? I'm impressed. Beautiful.

Dolly's sister 01-03-2013 07:38 PM

That is truly amazing, I love it. Great work.

Jean~It sounds like you're off to a good start! Keep at it and you will see improvement over time just like I did. I'm still learning lots, but am pretty comfortable with my machine now. It was sure hard at first to get coordinated with my machine speed and hands! And then trying to actually quilt a nice curved line with fairly even stitches was really a challenge. LOL.

anniebannanny 01-03-2013 08:22 PM

Wow, that is beautiful!!!! I took that class but I know that I could NOT make anything that gorgeous

Rose_P 01-03-2013 10:44 PM

Wow! So inspiring! I am definitely going to give more time to working on FMQ this year.

lizzy 01-04-2013 03:52 AM

Your piece is fantastic.

sandyl 01-04-2013 04:43 AM

I"ve tried FMQ only once or maybe twice, is this a class that you would recommend for a true FMQ beginner?

catladyquilts 01-04-2013 04:56 AM

That is gorgeous, wonderful job
