Fantastic work with rulers for a domestic. I am very curious about them and hope to see them demonstrated at some quilt show. I would like to give them a try before spending lots of money.

same here...but I won't get any time with my sewing machine until summer is over.

Wendy, your work is beautiful and encouraging. I consider myself to be a beginner FMQ but if you've been able to accomplish that in six years, there's still hope for me. : )

Beautiful work! I have the starter set and ruler foot, but can't find the time to practice with them. You have inspired me to make time! Thanks for sharing your beautiful work!

I bought a couple of the rulers & foot awhile back & they are really fun. Debbie from The Quilt Journal has a few great videos for using some of the rulers & so does Amy Johnson from Quilting Adventures. There are a couple more I would love to get but they are expensive & I have never seen them on sale. I keep watching though. Also there are great videos from Westalee. They also sell rulers.

I just bought these for myself! What was the learning curve? I'm a little intimidated, but I know I have to just jump

Not enough words to express my awe in your work!! Absolutely positively beautiful! I know you used the rulers, but you indeed have a great talent to put it all together and make something so pleasing to the eye. Thank you so much for sharing.

Just like with FMQ, I think the learning curve varies by individual. I found that the most important first step to successfully using these rulers is to have an extention table or have your machine in a cabinet or table where the machine bed is LEVEL with the surrounding table top.
