    Default Practicing my FMQ
    I have such trouble gaining control over my long arm for free motion quilting. And, being new to it, I'm not that familiar with different fillers. When I received this top from paniac, a member on this board, she let me play with it. While I'm not happy with the blue thread(matches the backing), I've got quite a bit of practice in on designs. I know I have a long way to go. But, I think I am improving. I tried some of Leah Day's 365 quilting designs out. What do you think?
