Default MSQC "Katie's Quilt" from Candy Swap

Here is part of the 2.5 inch squares I've received from the candy swaps here on the board. It's made from the tutorial from Missouri Star Quilt Co. tutorial called "Katie's Quilt" and ended up being about 58 x 58. It was a fast fun quilt to make.

I'm attempting to get better at FMQ so I put tons of feathers on it. Luckily, most don't really show up although I am getting better.

You are on your way. Perfection is overrated. I'm not an artist so anything close is fine with me. Besides in nature nothing is perfect so why do we try to achieve it. I'm not quilting to showcase my work but to use on the bed. Those that love you are not going to stand around with a magnifying glass criticizing the stitches. I think it looks good.

Lisa! It's beautiful!!! I think your quilting is wonderful too. Remember the name is FREE motion. I've been tempted to make cards and call myself the "Messy Free Motion Quilter" I'm not pro but I'm free and I'm learning, hopefully improving. I'm super glad to see you use some Candy!!!
