Close up of free motion quilting

I made this quilt from the free pattern at Brandy's http://www.brandysquiltpatterns.com/ChicletsFree.pdf
I had several 5 inch charms from a swap at guild and I pieced this in the leaders and enders method developed by Bonnie at http://www.quiltville.com/
I like how the gold thread looks on the light background and the navy fabric. I was shooting for whimsical flowers.....

Your FMQ is wonderful. I need to try to do something other than meandering, but I don't have any artistic ability. Maybe something simple.

“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep yourself open and aware to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open… No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others.” Martha Graham
