oh really? I hated stitch in the ditch.. i could never keep my lines straight :(
I'm not sure what machine you are using but you could consider buying a ditch foot to keep your lines straight.
I'm very new to FMQ and am currently practicing on my practice sandwiches, before I progress into sewing on a real quilt. Doing mostly meandering designs. I'm also practicing a loop-de-loop design, which is another variation of meandering. Find this much manageable than the usual meandering design.
