Free Motion Challenge for April

For April the challenge tutorial was to learn to transfer a quilting motif with a technique taught by Don Linn. He uses bridal tulle for this technique.

Stitched on my Janome 6600

March 2012 FMQ Challenge Tutorial, by Ann Fahl

I must say when I first saw this challenge I thought it looked quite easy WELL!!!! I found it quite hard as I am so used to NOT going over were I had stitched. You know when you stipple there is NO crossing over other stitches I'm sure you know what I am trying to say!!!!!!!!!!!

Fairy Quilt finished



Now the fairy quilt is finished I must get on to doing my FMQ challenge for this month!!!!!!!!
