Pink Poodles
Someone donated this fabulous pink poodle fabric to my local Project
Linus chapter. I liked it so much as a large piece of fabric that I decided to keep it as a whole cloth quilt and use it for some free motion quilting practice.
I am just not sure if I am ever going to get the hang of free motion quilting. I haven't completely given up yet, but I do much better with lines and I think I'm getting close to be resigned to sticking with straight line quilting. We'll see.
Here's the back. I back almost all of my Project Linus quilts with fleece. It makes for a quilt that is a great weight and it's soft and cuddly.
And a close-up of those fabulous poodles!

Your quilting looks fine! For an easy free motion, try doing figure 8s in a row, then on the next row, put the top loop between two bottom loops on the previous row, make sense? It is fast, easy, gets you in a rhythm that is sustainable and looks nice.
