Free Motion Quilting

I had so much fun quilting this beauty for a very talented quilt maker.

I truly love what I do and enjoy any time that I get to quilt, piece or work on  any and all other aspects of quilting.

There is something very special about free motion quilting on my Gammill Longarm Machine! In my opinion, free motion quilting is creative and soothing. With some of my favorite music playing in the background, I get a rhythm going and the design I chose flows across the quilt. Often, you could even catch me singing while I fill the quilt with my design in thread.

Free motion quilting is like drawing free handed....no pattern, no stencils and no rulers.  While I draw (sew) out the design I am creating, with my needle and thread, I get to see the quilt top, batting and backing being transformed into a quilt. This is very satisfying.

Remember! It's not a quilt until it's quilted!!

Thank you Marge, for letting me share your beautiful quilt.

Happy quilting,
Laurel
