I have been storing (printed out) "quilt stitch inspiration" pictures in a binder but need to also try doing some of the designs on fabric (BEFORE I try them on a quilt!) and putting them in the binder too.<br /><br />I love the work of PT and LD and am hoping to try using some of Angela Walters "modern" designs this year too. With FMQ, pratice makes confidence!

I had a lap top I loved and had it specialty quilted, gorgeous feathers etc., no space left unquilted :) just in case I had to have chemo along with radiation. Lucky dog, I didn't but when I washed the quilt it was just quilted. none of the lines showed anymore. It just looked like all over quilting. I sure it depends on the batting but unless I don't intend to wash it, I'm sticking with geometrics. Love the lines and they always show beautifully. <br /><br />Great practice quilting though! If you quilt it they will come!<br />Sharyn in KalamaSharyn Mallow Woerzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17776056375534578046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-16939553815702748912013-10-30T17:57:05.248-07:002013-10-30T17:57:05.248-07:00I have the hardest time choosing quilting designs!...I have the hardest time choosing quilting designs!
