Practice.......

 Makes perfect. Well maybe not perfect, but in the  FMQ case it does improve your skill.
This quilt top has been completed for awhile. Probably three years or so. I am sad to say it has been pinned across a closet opening. It is hand appliqued. I wanted it to look like picures on a wall, which I think it does.

A couple of close ups.


So....... I have be practicing FMQ designs to put in the background of the appliques. Trying mostly Leah Day's designs. Here are a few practice squares to see what might work. I havent really decided. Probably figure it out as I go along.










I am anxious to start so there wont be much more practicing, I dont think. So fun to have something different to tackle.

Watch out for todays bleessings!
