Your quilting is looking GOOD! Nice even stitches and smooth loops. Looks like you are off and running. Doing a whole quilt will make me ache too. I try to take breaks often, and have my quilting machine set up as ergonomically as possible. Keep practicing and you'll eventually become less tense and be able to do more at a time.

Have fun with it!
