Welcome, I say go for it. You can easily mix FMQ with Quilt-As-You go. I know some people even turn their practice FMQ pieces into small things like mug rugs/coasters. So, it's not really a stretch to add in QAYG. It would be a nice winter activity for you.
The only thing is, you have to do a smidge of preplanning for QAYG. But, where there's a will......
