Hi ,
This Sunday daylight savings time ended and we "sprung forward" one hour. Losing an hour of sleep and changing all the clocks in the house is always a pain, but it also means spring, more sunlight, and warmer weather is on it's way. Instead of complaining about the time change, we've decided to celebrate with a big Time Change Sale!
If you're just getting started with free motion quilting and needing to learn the basics of this awesome craft, definitely check out Free Motion Quilting Basics for Beginners, which covers all the basics of getting started, how to set up your machine, and get started with your first project.
Now let's catch up on all the cool new videos added to the Free Motion Quilting Project this week:
Casual Cam: Packing Up After a Workshop - I shot this behind-the-scenes video with Josh a few weeks ago as I was packing up after a workshop. Watch this video to see how much attention and planning has to go into every workshop and some tips on staying organized if you're just getting into teaching yourself.
Dancing Butterfly Design #10: Amazing Daisies - These daisies really are amazing! Learn how to fill this beautiful foundational design into an 8 inch block starting with a super simple daisy chain, then expand it to fill the space with rows and rows of
echo quilting.
Dancing Butterfly Design #11: Echoing - Echoing is one of the most important skills to learn for free motion quilting. Get loads of practice as you quilt a simple diagonal echoing design into a
design block for the Dancing Butterfly Quilt. New YouTube Channel Trailer - This is a SUPER short 30 second video that gives an overview of our channel on YouTube. Josh and I shot the video in just a few minutes, but it took several hours to edit, splice in photos, and search for the right clips to incorporate in the video. I especially love the last shot of Josh waving a knee lifter around! Click Here to watch now
Let's go quilt,
