I am taking part in the Free-Motion Quilt Challenge and have been working on my leaves. Did you notice the leaves on my first photo?
I have been doing stipple quilting for over 20 years and can do it in my sleep but this is a new technique for me. First of all crossing lines was something my brain had trouble with, I am still learning how to fill up an area without getting boxed in. Notice the little leaf in the bottom right corner....I added it later. I spent quite a bit of time drawing the leaves on paper before I moved to fabric.
I thought you might like to see the back too. I did this on 10 inch pieces of muslin and Warm & Natural batting. I have a lot more projects, QAL's, BOM's and other things going on but I had better get back to my quilting!
