That took me awhile to learn that lesson. I watched all those longarm videos and it's so fast and perfect, just whip-whip-whip and it's done, no problem. Yeah... that's not going to happen, at least not for me. It was very discouraging, to say the least. I'm a more "precise" type of person. What helped me a lot was watching tons of Sharon Schamber videos where she actually MARKS the quilting and to see close-up that it's not all perfection.
