| 2012 FMQ Challenge |
When I saw it mentioned on Elizabeth's blog, I knew right away it was something I needed to do in order to get me to practice and expand my FMQ skills.
See, I don't love free-motion quilting...yet...and I want to love it. But first, I have to make better friends with it, and we all know that in order to make good friends, you have to spend some consistent and quality time getting to know them. This challenge sounds like a good way to do that.
Every month, beginning in January, one of twelve FMQ experts will share a tutorial. If you complete the exercise that month and share it in the challenge, you will be entered to win a monthly prize. That works for me!
You can read all the details and register at SewCalGal. Whether you've been wishing you could, wanting to improve, or waiting for a sign, this may be it. The more the merrier!

Maybe this is a sign (directed at me I mean )
I'll have to mosey on over and have a look....
Since I can't even succeed at MQ, I wonder how I'd do with FMQ. I'll go check it out. Thanks for the heads up P.~ ☺ Happy Monday!
Thanks for the heads up! I'm going to have to take a peek.
Wow, your really don't get how awesome your quilting skills already are. Well, at least you'll have fun, and if we're lucky you will share with us. Happy Stitching!
I always like a challenge, so I will check it out.
I took Wendy Butler Burns' FMQ course on Craftsy, it was great but I keep breaking thread on my machine despite playing with tensions and trying different threads.
Good luck, I hope you have better luck than I did!
Yay! I'm excited to have at least one friendly face playing along.
xo -E
I'll have to check this out... I love to FMQ, but just meandering... I quilted today and considered doing loops, but could not bring myself to do it and just meandered throught it :) something to get me out of that rut would be good.
