Quilting Day 2



Since it has been a while since I did any serious free motion quilting I thought I would work each day to expand my repertoire of stitch designs. I have set aside the BSR for the moment and have been working with the Bernina 180. I really need to work on getting my stitches uniform in size. That will come with practice. I am fine with the designs I have been using but these new ones are a challenge but I think I am progressing.

I bought some Free motion quilting DVDs from Rio Designs earlier this year and Norman bought me the latest one for Christmas so I plan on working my way through these. They are very good - Patsy Thomson DVDs. I play them on my laptop. She has the designs on the DVDs available for free download on her blog. My aim aim is to stitch beautiful feathers just as Patsy does although I think that will be a while away.

I hope to layer and quilt my French braids quilt tomorrow. Once that's done and I have it bound I can then make a start on Circumnavigation. Life has been a little too busy to make a start on that but hopefully in the next little while I can make headway with it.
