Super easy – free motion quilt following the fabric’s pattern !
This fabric is from the Mixmaster-Scribbles line by Patrick Lose for Robert Kaufman. I love, love, love all the Mixmaster fabrics designed by Patrick Lose.
It was fun and easy to quilt this piece!
This fabric is from the Ginkgo collection by Kona Bay.
I love striped fabric too, it is so easy to quilt it.
I could not find more suitable fabrics for this purpose in my stash but here are a few I found in the Hawthorne Threads shop.
It is of a big help if you find a fabric in the desired color, pattern and scale. It can be used as accent pieces or background in blocks or as borders.I hope you can find some fabrics to help you with free motion quilting.

Speaking of fabric, do you know this fabric search engine, http://www.quiltshops.com/?

Wow, fantastic!!!
Great ideas. I especially like the ginko fabric and what you did with it.
Oh wow….just love your free motion and your tips….looks great!
Great ideas for free motion. I tend to get stuck when I have to quilt something and usually use a simple pattern.

Thanks Geta. I've been collecting fabric to use just for this.
thansk for that web site – it will be very useful!! Been wantin to try that idea of using the fabric with a good pattern on teh back of a quilt to use as the quilt pattern. I especailly love the quilting on the blue ginkgo fabric! well done! I do not think I will ever be bored by free motion quilting – I am still trying to master it!!
Geta, you are so creative. I enjoy admiring your work more than I have time to do them. Have a peaceful holiday!
I so enjoy your site and reading about you. You do beautiful work and I so commend you for spending the time to learn how to quilt in an area where quilting is now practiced very much.
