Well, since no one else seems interested in posting new items on the BB these days I guess I'll tell you about something I just purchased from the Keepsake Quilting catalog. This is a packet with two 36" x 44" pieces of pre-printed fabric called "Skillbuilders" with rather intricate patterns on them for free motion practice. The fabrics came with a booklet about how to learn free motion stitching (which I already know, thank you very much) and I can tell you that these "practice pieces" are certainly NOT for rank beginners. I know I will be concentrating so hard while doing this free motion practice work that my tongue will be sticking out just like it did when I was a kid learning how to write cursive. LOL
You can view what I am writing about at http://www.keepsakequilting.com/productdetail/2875.htm# or if that does not work, just go to the Keepsake Quilting website and type Skillbuilder in their search box. This should be an interestng challenge to see if I can follow the lines ... I plan on using purple thread and I will only work on this when I am well-rested and feeling capable of being focused. My free motion quilting (mostly on Project Linus quickie quilts) has gotten very loosey-goosey and I think I need to see if I can stitch like a grown-up again.
