Stunning. What a great way for a newbie like me to practice free motion quilting.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Simple panel is now a work of art. Absolutely gorgeous.
Aw sweet ~ thank you!
This is sooo soft and pretty...
You remind me of the energiser bunny you never stop until the job is done.
Thank you for sharing your creativity. Looking forward to the next one...because I know there is always another lurking in that pretty little head of yours.
Happy Quilting.
Love and affection,
Elizabeth...Australia.xx💕xx
Oh no...sometimes this bunny bites the dust and collapses!! LOL! Thank you so much! My brain hurts sometimes, because there are like 500 quilts in it at any one given time! :)
Don't forget to take time out just for you...I know you love what you are doing but sometimes we need to take a break to renew our batteries... Can't have you burning out. Take a deep breath and relax.
Always be kind to yourself dear Jean. We don't want you sick again.
May God bless and keep you safe always.
Happy Relaxing.
Love and affection,
Elizabeth...Australia.xx💕xx
P.S. Go make yourself a cup of tea and a piece of chocolate and go sit in your favourite chair with your feet up and enjoy it. 🍫
That was a pretty panel but you are making it stunning!
Thank you! Cheers!
Ich bin sprachlos und sooooo verliebt. Wunderschön, alles von Hand, wahnsinn.

Jean, you never sieze to amaze me it's absolutely beautiful. Xxx
Aw, so kind of you to say that~ :)
Jean Truelove you're welcome, credit where it's due xxx
Oohh la la! Stunning results. Beautifully designed quilting stiches. Thank you for sharing your skills! I'm almost ready to stencil a quilt. Watching you do it gives me optimism 🤗
Go for it! It's only fabric and stitching! :) And every time you practice something, you are one step closer to perfecting it! :)
Wow! Beautiful Jean. Thanks for showing us and explaining how you did it.
You are most welcome! :)
Jean, another beautiful job!
Aw thanks Karen:)
This is the most beautiful quilting I have ever seen. Oh my!
Aw thanks! This was a fun project...just quilting! :)
Your quilting gave life to the flower. Your Juki sounds like an old-fashioned typewriter when free-motion quilting.
I know...just click click clicking along! :)
Wow that's breath taking. How gorgeous it would be on a white wall
like you said. Loved the music you were playing. Your right seemed
funny not seeing you round the corners. It looks like a painting.
Great video Jean🌷
Thank you! I enjoyed this one!
I my goodness, you are putting real flowers to shame with this! Amazing!
Thank you! The fabric manufacturer did most of the work...I just 'filled in the blanks'!
Love your video. Your quilt is fantastic. I really enjoy all your videos and your a super teacher. I always learn something new. Thank you.
Thank you ~ that makes me happy~
I've been wondering how to handle my Dream Big panel and now, I have the answer! Thanks so much Jean. You ARE and inspiration!!!
So glad you watched me! Thank YOU!:)
Just beautiful, stunning. I absolutely love Robert Kaufman fabrics, unfortunately very very hard to get hold of in the UK. Jean you're amazing with your sewing.
Aw that's a shame! Thanks again:)
great job on the panel, thanks for sharing
Thank you ~ it was fun! :)
That is the most beautiful quilting I've ever seen. So beautiful.. I would love to try this technique.. GORGEOUS!!!!
Thank you :)
Love it, so very pretty, thanks again for another wonderful tutorial.
I appreciate you following along!
It is very beautiful. You did a wonderful job.
Thank you so very much! :)
Beautiful panel! And beautiful quilting! Love it!
Such a pretty panel...the fabric does most of the work, I just put the cherry on the top!
It will look stunning once its finished.
Thank you!
This is just lovely! Thank you for showing how to do free motion quilting!
You are most welcome!

Your quilt turned out beautifully! Thanks for showing us how you freemotion quilted it. I am going to get some stencils and try freemotion quilting on my next quilt. I look forward to each of your videos. I learn something with each one. Thanks again !
Start out with a simple stencil and just keep practicing! Thanks so much for tuning in~
I have 4 of these panels in different colors. Watching your video has inspired me to give it a try! I am new to all of this and have been using my dream machine to embroider every thing in sight. Its time to start a quilt and I think this size would be less intimidating. Thank you so much for sharing all the videos with us so we can learn too!!
This Quilt is just beautiful Jean and u done a really good job on the quilting
Thank you Margaret!
That is just awesome, love it! Thank you for sharing, once again you made it look so easy... You're the best!
I agree with PamLance- absolutely Stunning❣️❣️ I am a bigger so this would be my ultimate Goal❣️❣️❣️✨✨✨✨🙏🏻✨🙏🏻✨💖
That is just stunning. I love it.
Thank you!

Thank you so much! This was fun to do!
Oh wow, is that ever pretty! Love, love, love!
Thank you thank you thank you!: )
It's beautiful Jean! I can't wait to see it finished! Stunning!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful job...Love the feathers.
Some feather, some swirls, some pebbles, most blobs!! :) But pretty blobs!! Thank you Rosetta!
I've thought about doing this same panel, you doing it takes the apprehension away. I'm still practicing fmq'ing, this would be a good one to do that with. You are amazing, TFS, you always always always bless me with your teachings. I'm VERY THANKFUL for you
So easy really, whatever quilting stitching you would want to use in it! Thanks so much to YOU for watching!
very well done!! I would have never thought of this. So pretty!
Thank you! I loved making it!
Simply beautiful.
This was so fun! The fabric made it beautiful!: Thank you!
Good morning Jean. This is a beautiful quilt panel your working on with your free motion quilting, just love it. I’m not there yet lol, I’ll leave it to you to do. I did my block #16 and I really did enjoyed making it and a pretty easy one too. Oh boy look out faith a hard one is coming down the pipe line lol. Jean have a wonderful day sewing and quilting.😃
Good for you! Block 16 WAS easy! I've already filmed 17 and 18!! Pretty blocks coming up! Get ready! :) It is a beautiful crisp but sunny day here in PA!!
Absolutely stunning!!!!
Thank you!
Absolutely Gorgeous! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
THank you! Fun to quilt:)
This is STUNNING!
Thank you!
That is stunning Jean, well done. Jacqui
Thank you very much!
Love how you densely quilted the whole panel. Will have to buy one of those chalk pounce pads.As always enjoy your videos. 😊
Thank you! I love my chalk...can be a pain on lighter fabrics, so I would suggest you start with a darker fabric to mark as you can see the chalk easier.
Good idea I’ll use on darker colors. Thankyou
Beautiful. Love the overall design plan you chose to use.
Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful !
So kind of you!
Looks amazing
Thank you:)
I like that one 😍. You are very clever❤️
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Beautiful!!!! Genius!!!
Thank you!
This is stunning! Gotta get one of these panels. Perfect for practicing free motion quilting!
I realize it is kind of off topic but do anybody know a good site to watch new movies online ?
@Brady John Flixportal =)
@Blaze Cole thanks, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) I really appreciate it!
@Brady John no problem :D
Stunning!!
Thanks!
Absolutely beautiful! I would imagine the equilter web site will be crashing soon as we all order this panel. You give me hope that I can get my Juki to perform as well.💓
LOL! Yes, equilter will be churning out these panels and won't know what hit them!! :) JUKI is the Best!! :)
Hi Jean, I watched Bold Notion Quilting and she has fabric and thread for these panels. She also has classes to buy to learn how to quilt them, not that you would need the class. Thanks for sharing I hit the thumbs up button and do every time I watch your channel Question did you have to share up the panel prior to quilting and the finished panel is beautiful. I have a teal one that I want to get fabric for borders. Thanks again Jean I love all you do.
I have the LARGE 104" x 104" Big Dream Panel to do!!! YIKES! It's going to be a B I G job....gotta get my mind in gear for it!:) Thank you for watching and THUMBING up!!! LOL! I Had to square my panel up a Bit , but not too much.
oh my gosh another great idea!!!! thank you!!!
It’s beautiful!
Thank you very much!
SUPERB JEAN!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Aw thanks!
Hello Jean. I ordered this fabric panel from Nancy`s Notions last week. It`s on back order. I think this panel is smaller than the one you have. I`ll be making a fractured flower look with mine. Yours is beautiful and I think you did a great job with the motion quilting. I hope mine turns out as good. Susan.
Oh I'm sure it will! I ordered mine from equilter.com and it measured 43" x 44". Thank you very much! Let me know how you get on!
How beautiful!!!
Thank you!
Lovely work!
Very kind of you, thanks!
Cottage Treasures Quilting on TH-cam has done one of these panels as well. They are great panels to be creative with and they turn out wonderful.
I think Hoffman fabrics is on to a winner with this panel!! :)
Very striking!
Thank you!
You are amazing !
Not really, but thank you! I just do what I do!
I love your videos I stole your idea of a black and white checked barder on my first quilt...thank you
Thank you Jayne! I think a checkerboard border is among my FAVORITES to us on a quilt:)
Ok now I see where feathers can look pretty...not my favorite design.Very pretty my mom so into big flowers like this... thanks Jean for sharing your hard work!
Feathers are more traditional yes, but I like the look! I went overboard on this quilt with them!! :LOL! You are most welcome and thank YOU for watching!
I think ill watch more before I graduate to this. I would wing a mess.
You will never know until you try! Give it a go! You'll be surprised!
Stunning Jean just Stunning. I just love what you did to this panel. The quilting is gorgeous Jean. If I could just have a quarter of your talent I would be a happy quilter. I am going to have to buy some stencils and the chalk pad. Where is the best place to buy stencils? Then I will practice and practice. Jean I love this quilt.
Thank you Deb! I purchased a lot at actual quilt shows, but www.thestencilcompany has a large selection. I would start with a simple 'block' stencil, with an easy design. Remember, practice makes patience!! :)
Thanks Jean.
Jean, it is absolutely beautiful! You are the Queen of FMQ! You make it all look so easy. I was wondering if you use a silicon mat to make the quilt glide so smoothly?
Thank you ~ no super slider or anything like that, just a spray of silicone and its' all slippery! :)
Jean I have two of these panels quilted and I want to join them - I want to quilt a couple more to make a big quilt with 4 panels. But I don't want to use sashing. I haven't trimmed them up and I didn't quilt all the way to the edge. Do you have a video that explains how to QAYG without using sashing?
Uhhhhh....sorry...I've never done a QAYG on a larger project ~ preferring to quilt my entire quilt at one time. Perhaps another TH-camr?!?!? Again, sorry I can't be of help in that matter
Do you have the backing on this? I don't understand some quilt before putting on the backing, if you do that there would not be quilting on the back I imagine. I am amazed you mitered the corners. Beautiful. You are amazing. God Bless
Because this was a small panel, I actually marked it BEFORE I sandwiched the backing, batting and the panel itself. I only put in a few safety pins, being able to get away with that because it was a small quilt;. Thanks so much for the praise! :)
I should have commented after I watched this whole video... Wow, Jean, this is absolutely gorgeous. You've done a stunning job, I Love love love how you quilted this. Priceless, is it for sale?
Sweet.. Yes, it is in my Etsy shop for $310.00
I’m on equilters now, leaping from your video to their panels. Wow, this is so lovely Jean! Question: what exact batting did you use? I always buy warm and natural. Would that work for such dense fmq? ...you got me wanting a Juki now 🤪. I can’t get enough of your videos, so inspirational. Thanks and have fun at the quilt show. I’m praying for your foursome to be safe and have fun!
I used Warm and Plush from The Warm Company ~ sort of one up from Warm and Natural. Any cotton batting would work, but even a poly would give a puffy look. I wanted a nice flat quilt. I just LOVE my Juki! Best machine ever for strong, quick straight stitching and FMQ
What thread do you use? @@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory
@@maryanne2500 Because of the different colors, I think I used Connecting threads thread in all the colors ~ but used the Aurifil in the bobbin
This is a Beautiful quilt! I definitely recognize your background music. I love that song, but then they're all so Beautiful. I've only made 1 ragtop baby quilt, but I'm wondering if I could do free motion quilting with a regular Brother machine?
Thank you so much Suzanne! You absolutely can FMQ with your machine! Just lower the feed dogs, set the stitch length to zero, put on the proper foot and go for it! It isn't EASY...and takes practice, but once you 'get it', you GET IT!!! Its' a very 'freeing' art!! :)
So Beautiful , Love the feathering .I am having problems finding stencils online as I don't have any fabric shops nearby. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much , Love your work
Oh you must look up www.quiltingstencils.com They have a wonderful selection! Thank you so much for watching me:)
Have your tried spraying hairspray over your chalk marks to make them more resistant to being rubbed off?
I haven't! Must try that! Thank you!
When I stitch over the pounce chalk the chalk comes off, the agitation from the foot bounces it off and then I can't see where to stitch. So frustrating.
Yes, that happened to me a while ago...I think the company has addressed the problem a bit better so the recent chalk is slightly more effective. However, I still only stencil and chalk a small area at a time in which I am working. That way as I go, I don't have the problem of the chalk disappearing.
@@jeantruelovetruelovequiltsfory Thanks I will give the new chalk a try. I have a lot of stencils and chalk is the fastest way to mark them.
It's beautiful! Where do you get your beautiful stencils?
www.thestencilcompany.com has beautiful plastic stencils
Jean Truelove thanks I am going to order some now.
👍
Beautiful! Not sure I’ll ever master FMQ! Is it easier to do free motion with your Juki than it was on your Brother machine.
Give it a go again! Practice makes patience!! LOL! I love my JUKI and yes, it FMQ nicer than my Brother, though my Brother is behind at a close second! :)
WOW Love this you out did yourself. How long did you work on it.WOW
All in all about 20 hours. Thank you!
Jean when you first learned how to quilt using stencils did you practice on scraap pieces first.
Yes, absolutely! In case of mess ups! :)
Hi Jean! Do you pass two times on each stencil lines? So wonderfull😍
Yes, sometimes three times! I follow where my needle takes me ~ not exact science and maybe not professional, but I just go with the flow and go over lines, under lines, between lines, on top of lines....well, you get the picture!! LOL!
Jean Truelove so fun and joy I love Thanks
Got any tips on basting I keep getting a bit of Pickering it's a pain, not in middle for as getting to outside
Smooth smooth smooth...Always tugging gently the backing outwards and smoothing as you go!
What is the name of the black box you are using to mark it?
It is a chalk filled sponge like Pad called Pounce Pad from The Hancey Company. You fill with special chalk, swipe/pounce over your quilt top with a stencil, and the chalk marks the design.
Hi Jean I have a question for you
Where did you get your stencils and when you trace through them are they traceable all the way or are there tiny piece of plastic that interrupts the pattern
www.quiltingstencils.com have all sorts of stencils. They do have the tiny plastic things but I don't find that a bother personally.
Jean Truelove Thank you Jean, I wasn't sure how it would look on material , since when I traced it out on paper the gap was there. Last night I put it on material and your right, its not . hindering
Where is the best place to purchase stencils? What are the best sizes to purchase?
thestencilcompany.com I would begin with smaller 'block' stencils or if you wish, a 4 inch or 5 inch 'border' stencil. The simpler the design, the easier for a beginner to stitch out. I just love my stencils and chalk.
Is there an online store to buy those stencils??
quiltingstencils.com
Thank you
O Jean this is fantastic I love it. You are so clever love watching your videos . How long did this one take you to complete.?
Thank you! I think about 20 hours in total.
what machine are you using?
My JUKI TL22220 QVPmini
Do u have a stitch regulator on your machine??
No, and when I am free motion quilting anyway, I am the 'stitch regulator'.....making sure all my stitches stay fairly the same size:)
Jean. Where did you get your stencils
www.quiltingstencils.com
Doesn’t that kill your hands???
LOL! No....I find it quite soothing...and I have pretty strong hands and have been doing this for awhile:)
