Last Monday in April, Scroll Flower Continues

I think this is the last week for the Scroll Flower on Amy's Free Motion Adventures.  I really appreciate having several weeks to concentrate on one design.  I'm learning that it comes eventually but I would have not pursued it this long.  Of course, I can't spend a month on everything but it is confidence building that it will come.  You can see Amy's site by clicking  on her button to the right.
I want to stitch this out a couple more times but this is the balanced design I wanted.  Thank you Amy for the second video.  It was the missing link for me.

New all over design to learn

This past Monday Amy http://www.bloglovin.com/frame?post=2648296251&group=0&frame_type=a&blog=4987215&link=aHR0cDovL2ZyZWVtb3Rpb25xdWlsdGluZ2FkdmVudHVyZXMuYmxvZ3Nwb3QuY29tLzIwMTQvMDQvZnJlZS1tb3Rpb24tbW9uZGF5LXF1aWx0aW5nLWFkdmVudHVyZXNfMTQuaHRtbA&frame=1&click=0&user=0started a new design for us to practice on.  I just had time last week to doodle it on paper.  Again, I find my first attempts cramped & I tend to get stuck without an easy flow to the next flower.
 
So I tried to loosen it up & for now bigger is smoother for me.
