I LOVE TO DOODLE

As you know, I love to doodle…

No piece of paper is safe if I can find a pen…and no piece of fabric is safe either…

This idea came from a photo I saw on Pinterest…Read more HERE.

A QUILT SANDWICH — BEGGING FOR DOODLES

I created the quilt sandwich with a piece of hand dyed fabric that reminded me of a school “blackboard”.

Then, every time I had this Sulky Rayon thread on my machine…

I doodled for a few minutes before I started my bigger project.

TEST YOUR TENSION

This also served as my “tension test”.  I like to check the tension on my sewing machine before I started quilting each day.

    whoa – impressive

  • Lori, How do you stop and start each motif? Is it ok just to back over the first or last few threads? Don’t shoot me.

  • Totally way fun!!
    Have a great day.
    Always, Queenie

  • Oh my gosh. This is totally adorable! I am going to have to try this, this would make the cutest crib or stroller quilt for a baby!

  • Susan Stapley

    I love to do this as well! It’s a great way to test new motifs and when it is filled up with stitches it becomes one of the charity lap quilts that our group of 4 friends donate to local seniors homes at Christmas. We donated 47 last year and hope to do even more this year.
