    Monday is all about Fabric – #13 – Vie de Boheme + thoughts on purchasing only the kind of fabrics you are drawn to

    Hello Quilt Makers! Sadly, (with more than enough self pity) I have been put on a fabric lock down. Whole collections are sometimes hard to justify purchasing, especially when you look around your sewing space and see fabric in every nook and cranny. Sometimes I look around and see fabric that I know I was…

    We are stumbling through this class. Getting our p We are stumbling through this class. Getting our practice in. That is what makes you better. PRACTICE. There's no cheat code, sadly. Just work through the lessons. We will make some yuck stitches and that is OKAY! Just keep going, prettiness is on the other side of all this work.

Come join us at Quilt Class if you want to quilt along. This class is available as standalone or part of the club.
    Some pics from Quilt as Desired. We are working on Some pics from Quilt as Desired. We are working on Chapter 3. I am LOVING this project and cannot wait to turn all this practice into a quilt. 🥰
    In Chapter 3, we work on three designs that are id In Chapter 3, we work on three designs that are ideal for borders and sashing:

Swirls in a border
Swirls are a classic FMQ design, but they are not the easiest to master. When I first started quilting, my swirls were always a little too pointy or just kind of strange looking. Honestly, mine still sometimes come out a little funky. That’s okay. We stitch anyway and keep building that rounded movement.

Ribbon candy
Ribbon candy is beautiful and traditional, but let’s just say it can feel a bit hard. We try a looser approach too, and I show you a version I used in the borders of my Dilly Dally quilt that I absolutely love.

Wishbone loops
Wishbones are a personal favorite. I usually quilt them as a filler, especially inside flower centers. In this chapter, we take that familiar design and try it in a border space to give it a new role.

Meander, loops, pebbles, and swirls are our focus this week.

FMQ grows through repetition. Even ten minutes of practice helps build confidence and flow.
