I've been told that as you start quilting more and more that the quilts will start speaking to you and telling you how they should be quilted. Well I don't know if I am there or not, however, yesterday as I started quilting this quilt, not sure what I wanted to do I started getting these Ideas. I knew I wanted to do stars and so I practiced them then started in. But all the sudden I had this urge to use words. I'm not sure if I've free motioned words before. Oh well it's what was calling to me - so I'm giving it a try. I am still in the beginning stages so not all my loops are smooth, but I like what I did.
It's hard to see but if you zoom in you can see the words.
So I'll be working on it a little more today - and I'll see what I come up with.
Have a great day!
Blessings.

PS I'm not always good about leaving comments either - but if you can say Hi and let me know you were here. :)
I agree that a quilt can tell me what to quilt on it. But, sometimes, they speak very softly...or sometimes, its just in short statements, one step at a time. But, they have a way of making me unhappy if I do something other than what they want. Be well. I think your quilt will be great with writing in it. Lane
