from what i can see in the picture it looks like a prety quilt, i would rather watch paint dry than do stitch in the ditch , i do FMQ i think it is easier, also i saw where you said you had the quilt all over the place, do you have a large table to the side of your machine that the biggest part of the quilt can lay on mine is on the left hand side of me and it helps alot to have the bulk of the quilt there instead of bunched up on your lap or under your arm,,, hang in there, i once mentioned a way to quilt in sections , i do that with very large quilts on my sewing machine it is easier, you dont have all that bulk
