Trust me, with practice you do get the hang of it! You should see some of my early work! It was awful, but at the time, I liked it! Don't get discouraged!
I had a "friend" tell me, I had only been quilting for a few months, that "I would never get it". Well, guess what? That was a challenge!
We both put quilts in our local quilt show, and I placed, she didn't even get anything! HAHAHAHA Don't tell me I can't! And, yes, she was MAD!
