Design Wall Monday - 9/14/15
DESIGN WALL MONDAY -
Check out all of us who link up with Judy L. -
At Patchwork Times on Mondays.
We have some awesome stuff on our walls!
Well, THEY do - ME - not so much sometimes - ;))
===
On my wall today -
I got the letters sewn down -
And the panels together for the top - ;))
Unless you have the same kit -
You probably wouldn't notice -
That my turkey only has ten feathers -
Not twelve - ;))
The kit provided a template -
But I had an 18-degree Stack-n-Whack(R) Fan Ruler -
So I used that instead - ;))
On the Free-Motion Quilting front -
I have been using the Batik Placemats for "warm-up" -
The light blue thread blends right in -
And there are a bunch of areas to fill in - ;))
I finished quilting the Cottage Wall Hanging -
Using a cream-colored thread -
And trying several different patterns - ;))
I also finished quilting the Halloween one -
Trying to do a Free-Motion "loopy-flower" thing in the pinwheels -
The photos are crappy - sorry -
But the flowers (and bloopers) show better on the back -
Because of the orange thread on the black fabric -
If only I knew what I was doing - sigh - ;))
I need to bind these two -
Then tackle the pile in the corner - ;))
And I keep hearing these voices in my head -
Practice - Practice - Practice!!! - ;))
Done is better than Perfect!! - ;))
Practice doesn't make perfect -
Perfect practice makes perfect!! - ;))
Those voices could be really annoying -
If I wasn't having so much FUN - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

I think your free motion quilting looks fine. The best part is that it DOESN'T look like a machine did it. it looks handmade and amazing. The beauty of imperfection should be embraced.
Thanks, Gene - you're right - imperfection is part of the charm of handmade stuff - and I can do charming - ;))
