As much as I love sharing the amazing final projects of FMQ Rockstars when they graduate from Free Motion Quilting Academy, I know it can be a little overwhelming to see such amazing work when you’re nervous about getting started. So, I asked the Quilting Rockstars to share some encouragement as you begin your own free motion quilting adventure.

Have you ever wondered what the FMQ Academy graduates and students might say to their past selves who were nervous about the class or terrified of free motion quilting? Have you ever been tempted to think, “Well, those Rockstars must have already had some experience before the class-- they weren’t scared, and that’s why their work is so great!”? Once again, I’ve asked a few Quilting Rockstars to share what they might say to their pre-FMQA selves, as well as what they’d like to share with you.

Dear Future Rockstar,

Love, The Rockstars Before You

Closing Thoughts

YOU are already a Quilting Rockstar, and if you’re wanting to be a Free Motion Quilting Rockstar, too, I hope Kathy, Barbara, and Maureen have helped inspire you! I’d be honored to be your guide on a fun, FMQ adventure!
