Default My first time trying FMQ
[ATTACH=CONFIG]517164[/ATTACH]Just a baby burp cloth, but I just decided what the heck let me see what all the hype is about! I know there are mistakes, but I really enjoyed it! I didn't focus on being perfect and just let myself go! If it wasn't for this board I dont even know if I would have started quilting so a big thank you to you all! Give yourselves a pat on the back and take a bow!

You did find. The trick it not to look at where the needle is at the moment but where you want to go. Your curves will get smoother with practice. Keep up the good work.

The smooth flow will come the more you practice. I think you did a great job first time out of the gate. It is all very evenly spaced too-- nice job!

You have done great. Now you can get going on more. Keep this one for something to look back on and tell if you are improving. You will absolutely!

Looks great! The quilting density is really well balanced thru the whole piece.
