I saw this quilt at a local quilt show, and was impressed by the pattern. Your quilt is just lovely!

I think its easier to get the freezer paper off if you quilt AROUND it instead of THROUGH it. Use a different FP template for each line. You can use each piece several times before it loses it's ability to stick.

Thank you for your suggestion. I will try that.

No, I did free motion quilting. I am just learning how to FMQ. I really enjoy it. But as others have said, Practice Practice Practice. . So that is what I'm doing.
