Default Finally

I have been avoiding free motion quilting for so long. Today I finished a little baby quilt that I was working on and decided to make a practice sandwich and give it a try. This is what I did. Each area is 6" x 6". The straight lines were done with the IDF (dual feed) engaged on my Pfaff. The other designs were free mo with no marking. I am very surprised and pleased with how it turned out. I had a small area of skipped stitches on two of the curves but other than that the tension was perfect.
Thanks for looking.

Looks nice. I have been avoiding free motion also but have got to jump in I'll never master it if I don't try. Sue
