Thanks everyone!
Right there with you on your determination! It is not as hard as some make it out to be. :lol:
Your right! It is more about practice and practice and determination!
We speak the same language then. :thumbup:

Start with something small, like pot holders.

FMQ on a tradition sewing machine is exhausting. I have never tried it with a king size quilt. How do you get all that bulk under the head? One thing you can do is roll it up and throw it over your shoulder.

That's why I tracked down all the qaug methods I could find until I found one I liked! You don't have to quilt then join individual blocks, you can do 3 or 4 square foot sections then join.
