    Well I be darned. I don't see anything wrong with that picture. Your talent looks far greater, then I could ever imagine mine to be. I don't quilt, have a quilting machine. I only tie. I have tried hand quilting numerous times and my fingers just don't want to co operate.

    Oh my gosh, I don't know what you're complaining about. Must admit it was very cute & creative complaining though. I haven't gotten beyond very bad meandering with points & crossed lines. Just can't get the hang of doing feathers or anything else that is more of a pattern. You're doing just great.

    I would appreciate it if you would give my ability your abiilities email address, my want seems to be winning out!! My answer was a high end machine, it does help, actually quite a bit. I wouldn't worry about your ability, I think you are doing just fine.

    I think it looks wonderful, but I do understand your pain. Mine never turn out like I like them to.

    think that what you are looking for is perfection, not ability.
