Modern FMQ QAL: September

This is the second to last month of monthly FMQ challenges - then it will be time to put your quilt together (click here to see the related blog post!). September's theme is "pebbles" - please bring your quilt sandwiches to the Sept. 12 meeting and share for a chance to win the monthly prize! You can also share your progress with the hashtags #modernfmqqal and #cjmqg.



Pebbles are an intermediate free motion quilting motif. At this point, if you've been practicing all year, you should be more than prepared to handle pebbles. Watch the tension on your machine; test a bit first before you start quilting your quilt sandwiches. Pebbles tend to be the worst tension-wise for me, but they are by far my favorite motif. :)
