If this is your first try, cut yourself some slack.
Looks better than what I did on my first whole quilt.
Even now, the one I am hand quilting, the stitches are uneven.
I find if I put it down for a week and come back, I struggle getting small stitches again.
SO I quilt a little here, a little there and hope it all blends in.
The thickness and the fabric all pay a part in how easy or hard it is...
