The Free Motion Quilting Project

In 2009, I created a blog with a really long name that was eventually shortened to theFree Motion Quilting Project. My original goal was to share 365 free motion quilting filler designs in one year, with a new quilting video and photos shared daily.

Whew! That was a lot of work. It ended up taking three years to complete that original challenge. Once I'd shared so much, I decided to keep going and we now have over 500 designs organized for you, along with several quilt alongs to help you master the basics.

It's nice to enjoy the designs off the screen too, so make sure to check out the book 365 Free Motion Quilting Designs. This is a picture book of the first set of designs shared to the Free Motion Quilting Project and is the largest collection of quilting designs ever published. It's the perfect book to keep near your sewing machine when you can't think of the next design to quilt.
