Isn't it rewarding to be able to complete a quilt yourself? I love doing my own FMQ'ing and had to learn because I don't have a long arm quilter (though I would love one) nor can I afford to pay for someone else to quilt for me. I find great satisfaction in completing my own quilts all the way through.
I can tell you are hooked. Just takes time and practice, practice, practice. You will be a pro in no time, you have the gift. Sent you a PM with a great FMQ'ing instruction site.
