 April's Free-Motion Quilting Challenge


This Month's quilt challenge was taught by Don Linn.  I just love this Technique!!  I have been quilting for several years now and I have never seen this technique using tulle to transfer quilting designs.  Thank you Don for sharing one of your designs with us!!  


When using a permanent marker...... Don't forget to heat set it.... or it will transfer onto your fabric.   




Here is my sample.... with black permanent marker on the block....  {sigh} 


I will have to make this one over again!  Back to the drawing board.  


Front -As you can see I forgot to heat set the tulle!

  6. I forgot about heat setting the tulle but, fortunately, it didn't transfer onto my fabric. Your project is well done.
