FMQ - HA! I need to practice!
 
This was my first ever attempt at free motion quilting. It looks so easy!! But wow do I need to practice!!

I tried to do some pebbles, feathers, a daisy and a heart. Good luck finding them! LOL

Try writing your name, it's something we all know how to do, so it's good practice.

Looks just like mine - watching the you tube videos it looks so easy...I have two left hands???? (and two left feet) - oh well.

Look at Leah Day's site. It inspires me, because I'm not that good either. Good luck.

Don't give up, that looks very good for a first ever try!! It only gets better. Doodle with a pencil, that helped me alot. Practice often. Best of luck!

It is hard, isn't it ? I usually catch onto things easily, but this is harder than it looks. I did find all the things you mentioned though, so you aren't that bad !
