It was my turn to lead this month's session, which was all about trying out some free machine quilting exercises. We started off with trying to get our machines stitching nicely. Some were more cooperative than others!
The first exercise was to get the tension (approximately) right and then to do some doodling in thread. This one has some nice trees and also shows how difficult spirals can be.
These have some more doodling and practicing with July's printed designs.
In the afternoon we moved on to filling patterns either based on a grid of dots or freestyle. Here are some of these samples.
I hope you all enjoyed the day. See you next month!
