Oh, your quilting is outstanding! I too took the course and got lots of good pointers. I'm currently working on a quilt that I had pieced fairly carefully and wanted truly beautiful quilting. Painful as it was, I followed Cindy's ESS recommendation (ditch every stinking seam) before starting the FMQ part. Even though my stitching was acceptable on my practice piece, when I was doing the actual design on the quilt I had lots of trouble. Couldn't make nice smooth lines, thread breakage (SOOOO frustrating), etc. I'm taking a break and plan to pick up the next parts tomorrow.

Maybe you want to do mine for me?
