I thought I was doing the right thing by using a dark thread on dark fabric but I got totally LOST in meandering. I couldn't see at all and crossed over, made a real mess. I'm just now starting to get some FMQ confidence and feel, once again, like I'm defeated at the start. I began again with a contrast color thread and did OK but it's just not what I had in mind. Is this normal? I would have thought that coordinating thread would hide my many mistakes ... HELP
