The quilting is just fine. In the beginning your stitches will be big. Your goal is to make them even and it looks like you already are doing this. Pat yourself on the back. Batting type also effects the size of stitches. But most important, the more you hand quilt the stronger your hands become and strong hands equal small stitches. When my dd was visiting she was saying how she wished her stitches were small like mine. Then I pulled out my very first hand quilted quilt. Seems my stitches were "toe catchers"too. Just don't give up! Hope this encourages you to go on because I liked what you did so far.
