Quick post to show off my new addiction. Free motion quilting on my little
crappy lovely Kenmore! I was always afraid of starting free motion on my machine because well I just didn't think it would do well. Also my machine doesn't have the needle down option(if you don't know what I am talking about don't worry:O) so I just never did. I had a few little unfinished quilt top because I was waiting for a new machine. Well I changed my mind because of a new project I am in the process of completing, will share soon! With a new darning foot and some encouragement from a local quilter and quilt shop I jumped in!
So I have just been practicing on lots of small quilt "sandwiches" the girls think they are baby doll blankets, Nathaniel wants to throw them all away.
Here a few and a
link to one of the many tutorials/videos I used along the way!

Dinosaur pieces I had left over, now a baby doll quilt.

Practicing hearts and swirls.

I love the orange on pink, don't know if I can see it in the pictures.

The back of my current project.

Wow! That's great Heidi! I've talked about doing that, too, so if I ever get around to it I'll have to ask you about it. Don't you just love quilters and quilt shops? They're the best!
