I say practice, practice, practice!! I quilted hundreds of charity quilts for kids when I first started free motion quilting. The kids do not look at the quilting and say. “Oh my, wonky!!” They do not care, the just love the quilt.

I did not start quilting my own quilt tops until I felt good about my improvement on the charity quilts. The other thing I do before I start a very intense quilting motif, is to quilt it out on a piece of muslin or a charity quilt to see how it will look and how hard it will be or to see if I need to modify my path.

I do not think it matters on what type machine you are using to quilt with, what matters is that you practice and perfect your skills. Enjoy the process!! Hope to see your quilts posted here in the future.
