Doodles

Welcome back to Open Line Friday.  This is your opportunity to ask and answer questions!  We’ve talked about everything from our favorite beginner quilt books HERE, to how to handle a large quilt, HERE.  Don’t miss the Open Line discussion of washing quilts, HERE.  We have even talked about mascara and stitch regulators  HERE.  Note--be sure to read the comment section–that’s where the conversation takes place!

As you know, I am a big proponent of doodling.  Doodling makes you smarter–(read about that HERE.), but most of all, doodling creates muscle memory that really helps with free motion quilting.

Doodles on Paper I doodle on everything–calendars, notebooks, napkins, and occasionally in my sketchbook. Most of my doodles get thrown away, but when I sketch something I like, I cut it out and throw it in my “doodle-basket”.  If I really like it, I glue it into a notebook. (Read about Doodle Notebooks HERE.)

Many readers have told me that they practice the Tuesday Tutorials on whiteboards or on Wacom tablets.  I’d love to know more about that–which Wacom, etc.–and I’d love to know how and where YOU doodle?

 Remember by motto, if you can’t doodle it, you can’t quilt it!                   AND it’s corollary,                   If you CAN doodle it, you CAN quilt it!
