- Music, quilting and no talking! Just relax and enjoy. All the elements used in this improv quilting were introduced previously. You know all of them. If you do not, there is a whole playlist or two with suitable videos. Today it is all about using your favorite patterns to create a new design, new project, new art.

I love your talking videos, Gosia, but also your "silent movies" 😉😂 I find your videos very inspirational and have learnt a lot from. you 🤗 hugs!
there are basic videos that need explanation. If I want to teach, then I need to talk. But there are so many videos where people just talk and do nothing! So I like to quilt, put some nice music and share this peaceful expirience.... hugs and Love from Germany!
Superb and stunning. Thank you for this beautiful video.. it made my day! so inspiring.. 👏👌
it seems many of us need something to relax and let go. I missed doing this kind of content as well. Have a great day! ❤❤❤
Благодарю,.благодарю ❤❤❤❤❤ это прекрасно ❤❤❤❤
Thank you! I am happy you like it. May it give you inspiration!
Thank you for showing this in real time. So many fmq vids are sped up . This gives the impression that the work must be done quickly... as least it did to me. This is a process that should be enjoyed for the journey. It's my happy, calm, quiet place..... Thank you for sharing...
Thank you for your comment. I do not like the accelerated videos. I agree with you. Quilting is a slow art. I remember how much it helped me to see the real speed. I realized I do not have to rush. Actually I am way more effective at lower speed. And more relaxed. I will continue with type of content. I am a rebel in the world of tick-Tock, IG reels, and social media :) ❤❤❤
@@quiltingnerd I started my FMQ quilting journey on my domestic... and still use it for smaller projects. The natural progression for me was going to a longarm. I have a smaller one (15") and refuse to move to larger one or a larger frame than my 8ft. I have told my quilting friends that the day this turns to work, I'm out! I'm 71 and have been doing some form of sewing or quilting since I was about 8. When I transitioned to the longarm, everything I saw was accelerated on You Tube. The videos were great teaching tools, but I had to force myself to go slow. I don't have a stitch regulator on my longarm, so, I have begun to think of it as a domestic with handles! That has helped tremendously with slowing me down. I set the speed for a good movement to stitch ratio, then go slowly to maintain that pretty stitch. With this mentality, my quilting has improved greatly. And a surprise is that watching FMQ on domestics vs the longarm videos has helped reiterate in my brain that fast isn't always best..... Thank you again for your content. Your work is beautiful, soothing, and very educational!
@@lanellehatcher561 Wow! Thank you for the story of your quilting journey! What a gift. I am quilting since 8 years. Then I got my tiny sewing space. I even do not have space for a long arm but I am happy with my large Janome. I can quilt a King size quilt on it. ANd I understand you about the hectic and pressure of preformance. We have to do faster, better, impress....I don't want that. For me quilting is a slow art. It is life style.... I would love to have more time for it, but I do enjoy what I can. It helps me to slow down enough to hear my thoughts. So I will never accelerate my videos. Quilting is slow, a beautiful meditation...
Beautiful, you are the first person I’ve ever seen whose quilting is like fun doodling. It’s marvelous texture makes it more like embroidery, turning the fabric into such a unique, rich piece of cloth and treasure!!! How WONDERFUL!!! Thank you very much. ✨💖✨
Thank you for your kind comment. I am not the first one, but tere are not many of those, this is true. Also, I like changing colors and playing with contrast. I started doing that because it is easier to film but it turned out I love it. Also, doodling is a great way to leran and relax. So it is a win-win ❤❤❤
Meditation with a purpose. The world goes away, you’re all on your own. Thank you for very calm 50 minutes.
I am adding good music in my headphones, or an audiobook and I am really gone. It is a wonderfull feeling of flow. No wonder it is so addictive. I hope I could provide some relaxing time! and some inspiration ❤❤❤
Wow, gorgeous!
Thank you! ❤❤❤
Your work is soooo beautiful! I am always mesmerized watching you. I can't for part 2!
Thank you most kindly! I am working on this project andhope to finish it soon. I hope it will be as much relaxing as the first one :) ❤❤❤
Woke up this morning to find this latest most beautiful video. A perfect way to start my day! I especially loved the encapsulated swirls. Can’t wait to see the rest of it completed. Thank you for your channel, it’s inspirational and you help me on my journey to become a better quilter.
Reading such comments makes my day! Thank you for your feedback. I am happy to hear that I can help. I learned from YT too and I am happy I can give it back. I am in touch with some of my followers and it is great to see their growth and progress. It is a good feeling to know, I support creativity. ❤❤❤
Gorgeous!
Thank you for your feedback! ❤❤❤
Gold is always such a beautiful accent, gives a classic elegance. I especially love the "encased" swirls, really beautiful!
It was creative fun. But such projects also have purpose. I am learning how color act on different backgrounds, how strong or dominant they are, what are the intensity differences between the fabric and the thread that work good.... I learned a lot sicne I started my YT adventure ❤❤❤
Seeing things take shape from the work of our own hands is such a joy. I am grateful you decided to start your yt journey. You are such an inspiration to everyone, but especially beginners like me. Thank you!
@@renabritnell5497 your words mean so much! Thank you. I am always fascinated how the fabric changes when you add texture. I love quilting. It is always pleasure to see the project taking shape. The perfection if stiches does not matter at the end. The texture counts. And I was also a beginner once. Sometimes I cannot belive how much I learned ❤❤❤
Beautiful!
Thank you! ❤❤❤
The gold on black really showcases your wonderful work. It is quite beautiful to watch. Thank you.
This time I wanted strong contrast. The fabric is almost black so it is perfect for the golden threads. And they are shiny. I had this box of the yellows and wanted to experiment and focus on something what I would never do without my YT activities. ❤❤❤ Thank you for your feedback!
@@quiltingnerd Really works - nowhere to hide mistakes with such a high contrast either. Very impressed.
@@MarionFeltham This is the way how I learn. Blending thread is extremely relaxing as it hides the inaccuracies. But high contrast... you need to analyze and think what is missing, how you can do it better, where is the problem... too much control, wrong angle, too large stiches.... It was brutal at the beginning but I learned that mistakes are mine to make and that I can hide them, learn from them..... I made me better person in a way...
@@MarionFeltham I learned that way. High contrast quilting shows everthing and pushes me put of my comfort zone. I learned to recognize my mistakes and own them. Actually it made me a better person, less of a perfectionist and more comfortable with my imperfections....I like my quilting way more and I like me much better as well..... funny how that worked out. :)
@@quiltingnerd You only learn from pain and making mistakes, at least that's my experience of life, and I think perfection is perhaps over rated. My piano teacher and I used to discuss this - perfect technique, perfect timing, perfect notes somehow doesn't touch the soul as when someone plays with feeling and passion ie slightly slower, or faster at times, and with the odd wrong note. The human condition is a complex and wonderful thing, indeed quilting (and other creative activities) can be a great teacher in so many ways, that's why I think they are so important. Again, beautiful work and so pleased to hear you get so much from it. Long may that continue. Take care.
Canon de Pachelbel j adore c est si reposant encore une belle création votre ouvrage ❤❤❤
Dear Sylvia! Thank you! I needed such a free project. It was good for my soul. Soon I am gove for a vactaion and hope to get even more ideas. Have a great Sunday! ❤❤❤
Bonnes vacances profitez bien ❤❤❤
You know, Gosia, I put one of your quilting to music videos on in the room while I'm working on my own quilt. I think it helps with my flow. I'm more than halfway done with my quilt, the one alternating snowball blocks and 9-patch blocks. I'm using a Glide Trilobal polyester thread in Cream for the whole thing-it looks amazing on the back of the quilt, which is a blue and green brush stroke texture. I love when I like the back of a quilt better than the front. Does that ever happen to you? I enjoy your improv quilting and it's so inspiring and educational, gives me ideas. Blessings my quilting friend, Cynthia
The description of your quilt sounds yummy. And yes, I do love when the back looks good. Actually, sometimes, when I am using busy fabric on top, I like to use a plain one on the back, so when I turn the quilt down I can see all the texture. I get it, totally.
About the music. I quilt with my blutooth headphones on. It is either music or audiobook. I can write you the names of my favorite creators. It is mostly instrumental modern classic. The quilting just flows. It is a pity I cannot use it directly in my videos, copy rights and so on. But yes, good music gives you wings.
I finished my golden project. I like it! ❤❤❤
Have a good week and fun with quilting!!!
@@quiltingnerd Sure, would love to know who you listen to. I have used Liborio Conti from TH-cam in my videos; it's copyright-free music. TH-cam Studio also has a music library free to use for our videos as well, if you haven't seen it.
@@rootsrocksfeathers1975 Try Armand Amar (wonderful French composer), tehn Christl Florian, Alexis Ffrench... Some of it is on YT as videos. Actually, I found Mr. Amar, as a German ice skatic paar used his music for their gold winning dance. th-cam.com/video/6bNOnXTe4Ok/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7V43_jY-vwhxP9PY
There is more, like Florence and the machine, but those three have the perfect tone for quilting.
Thank you so much, I'll look into those. Have a wonderful week, my friend. I wrote them down. I do know Florence + The Machine, though!
@@rootsrocksfeathers1975 She is cool !
Love the wavy lines very versatile, and forgiving. Primrose mcvay
You are as always right. Wavy lines are great for beginners and advanced quilters as well. You can do so much with them. And learning content is very large! ❤❤❤
So I came across a deal I couldn't say no too, so I didnt....it's and old handi quilter sixteen (first model of the hq 16's) on an 8 foot frame. Only one owner n the shop I am buying it from has done all the maintenance work since it was bought. For $500!!! If it works for only a year, I learn how to longarm n can upgrade! So I can do both types of quilting
That is a great deal!!! Wonderful! As it is an older model, I presume you will get more than just one year. The old machines are very robust. Not so much electronics, simpler construction. Great. ❤❤❤ I wish you tons of fun. Let me know how it is going..... One day, maybe I will manage to get me a long arm. For now, I simply do not have space. Hugs and best wishes ❤❤❤
@@quiltingnerd I have the space now but fixin to move half way across the country, n either I get a whole bedroom as a studio OR my bf is gonna build a thred shed studio for me so I can really work towards fulltime custom quilting. Will only be an hour from missouri star quilt co AND Angela walters, so I see classes in my future :)
@@loriwiemann9836 Wow! you are in the creativity vortex!!!! One day, I will get back to US and then visit Missouri star quilt.....my dream :)
Beautiful so calming love your videos. What sewing machine are you using?
Thank you most kindly! I relax the best when I can do just that... threads, fabrics, colors...
My machine is a Janome M7, but a smaller one will do as well. ❤❤❤
HI. I have followed your latest quilting and made a video of me stitching it. Would you mind if I put it on my channel with a link too you? I am still at the learning stage. You have certainly inspired me to do these fillers and I love it with music. Thank you :)
Yes, you can do that. PLease cite my channel, greatly appriciated. However, if you only do your own variation of the patterns then it is fine. However, I deeply appriciate you asking. I hope you have fun with the ide combinations!
Your videos are very calming. What brand of thread are you using?
Thank you for your comment! That depends on the project. For this one I used a variaty of polester embroidery thread. In others 50wt quilting cotton. Mostly Aurifill, Wonderthread, or brothread...
It’s lovely. What machine do you have? It looks to have a very large throat space. I’m definitely going to try this.
HI there! Thank you for your feedback. And yes, you recognized correctly, my machine has some space. I have Janome M7 and I love it. I hope you will have fun! let me know.
@@quiltingnerd hi
I’ve just been offered a moxie long arm second hand. I can’t wait to get it. Free motion quilting is a passion of mine.
@@lesleyobrien3907 awww! So much creative fun..... wonderful. I hope you will have many wonderful and creative moments and projects!!!!
Sou fã do seu trabalho, é tudo muito delicado, precioso. Parabéns te acompanho de Brasil
YEY! Thank you for your feedback. This is what I love about quilting. We are all over the world and contribute so many different ideas to this art! I see so many wonderful quilts from Brasil, Spain, Portugal, Africa, France, Germany. Quilting is an international art! ❤❤❤
