    So far this one is my favourite! I tried in on my quilt, and it's the lovliest of the bunch. Perhaps my muscle memory is used to this one as I kind of doodle like that from time to time.

    I've been admiring this design for ages, and I love it even more having used it on my most current lap quilt, a rail fence pattern.

    Oh my! This will sound really stupid, but a light has switched on watching this video. I knew the feed dogs must be lowered so the fabric can move around but always thought you still had to revolve the material around the needle ….never realised it was possible to sew backwards too. That is much less daunting – off to try my first free motion sewing! Thank-you for enlightening me.

    As I'm a glass artist, the name drew me in. As a beginner FMQ, I like this. I really like watching you quilt the whole block. Again, as a beginner, one of my challenges is how to flow the design throughout the working area. Thanks SO much, Leah, for sharing your talent, for demonstrating so effectively, and for teaching so clearly.

  5. How could you take this pattern and use it in an even bigger space? Would you always have the glass dripping from one of the edges? Thank you for freely sharing your creativity and knowledge with us.
