Amy is having a McTavishing linky party and if you like the free motion quilting method then it's definately worth a look. The project she is working on is gorgeous and gives me much inspiration. She drew me in with the circle and here is what I am practicing.
This is one of many circle doodles
I had this small sun print / painted fabric in my stash so practiced on it- looks moonish
Then on to finish off this art quilt that was all quilted except the moon. I know a bold move since if I screwed it up I could ruin the whole thing but just went for it.
I like it ;-)
Have you ever tried McTavishing?

Karen McTavish came to Baton Rouge maybe 7 years ago and taught classes. I was not interested in the long arm work because I never thought I would ever get one. But I did go to her lecture. Now I wish I had gone to the classes!
