I did my first applique needle turn quilt and mine was not as good as yours. I loved the hand work and you will get better....promise... Mine is perfect because I sent it to Charisma here on board to quilt for me great prices and her work made my small quilt perfect....lol... I just look at her beautiful stitches and it makes me not pick on my imperfections so much...do not be so hard on yourself it looks great...T
