Free Motion Quilting Showcase Quilt

A few weeks ago I received a sweet email from Faye:

I wanted to thank you for help and inspiration your Free Motion Quilting Design Gallery has been. I am a beginner quilter and wanted to experiment with free motion quilting and couldn’t decide between the fantastic designs you supplied. So I picked 20 and “showcased” them in individual blocks in a quilt for a friend’s birthday. Your videos, clear instructions, and helpful photos gave me the confidence I needed. Thank you very much. Best wishes, Faye

Thank you so much for sending this to me Faye! She also included two beautiful photos of her finished free motion quilting showcase quilt:

Faye showcased 20 designs in this simple quilt for her friend!

And a closeup of the free motion quilting design Sprouting Seeds:

This is a closeup of the design Sprouting Seeds. I love how those roots nest together in this design!

So beautiful! If you’ve been wanting to play with designs, but just can’t pick which ones to use, you can try this too. Just pick your twenty favorites and stitch each one in a different block. By the time you finish, I bet you will have found some new favorites!

Let’s go quilt,
