Fast Forward Quilt Along, Part Six
Fast Forward
Time to add texture to our quilt with free-motion! (On a frame, remount the backing onto the lower front bar you usually use for the quilt top as you work back up the piece. This will ensure the quite top remains a consistent distance from the bed of the machine.)

Watch this video to see me add texture with free-motion quilting.
If you don’t like one of the patterns that I used, you can really use any curved free-motion design with a similar quilting density in these areas.

Trim the quilt, add binding, and you are done!

I’ll be back next month with a pattern for a coordinating pillow that uses up all those little half-square triangles you made while piecing.
