I equate the process to learning how to drive a stick-shift. Too many moving parts and everything has to be in alignment.
Love it! And the driving analogy is a good one. I learned to drive very late (was 50 when I passed my test) and that was a long, hard, 2 year struggle that I remind myself of as I mess up my FMQ again - I got there in the end.
But I've wondered about the issue of being unable to draw - I can't draw with paper and pencil, so the chances of doing more than a meander on a quilt seem remote.
