move in free motion for me

When I tell people I am an unpaid intern they usually ask me where I am going to school and what class this internship is for.  Well, it's not really that easy.  I propositioned the ladies at Wooden Spools in Denver one day when I was shopping.  Will work for fabric.  And how sweet it is!  So yesterday I was pushed into the free motion class (to fill up the last space....maybe).  As apprehensive as I felt, I went for it. 


This is my first little sampler.  The stars and hearts were the first thing we did - and it was hard!  Then we did the echo...also hard.  I was a little bit better at the meandering and loops and found those more fun.  
I can even write my name...sort of.  Some of my favorites Were wood grain:
And although I didn't think I really got it, the bouncing bananas came out okay:

I also really enjoyed the pebbles:

Overall, it was a fun class and I learned a lot.  Now it's time to practice!
