And here is me hard at work on my baby quilt. Have decided on a loopy - loop design . In order to keep me focussed I had to have my drawing of the design next to me the whole time just to refer to the scale of the design and also to check every now and then in which direction I was going. Loops are easy to stitch, however I don't find it that easy to fill up an area with any level of consistency. I am aiming for a scale of about an inch over a 3 - 4in area, so have to have a fair bit of speed to make those more sweeping kinds of movements. Very easy to then get lost in it all and end up too close or between some loops. So far, so good...half way through

You could easily still add some fmq to the blocks as well, it will really make those feathers pop! Love what you did...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out :-) Your FMQ is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Marelize, and you could fill all the white from block to feather if you wanted.
ReplyDeleteI have the same challenge with loopy lines; I haven't done it enough to get a good rhythm for filling evenly. I like the color of your baby quilt.
