Chances are very high that if you posted a picture the problem would be pretty much invisible. And not every technique is for everybody. I was a dreadfully perfectionistic knitter, so when I took up quilting I vowed never to rip anything out, no matter what....it's led to some creative applique, some pretty hideous FMQ (which the recipient still thought was brilliant) and amazingly few orphan blocks. Pick something fun and do that. Maybe you don't even really like SID.....

Nobody is born knowing how to do it. Practice makes perfect. You are probably the only one to notice. If other quilters do notice I would hope they would have the good manners not to mention it, as I'm sure they could all remember when they first started.
For any non quilter who should be so rude as to point it out just ask "when did you make your last quilt"? Rest assured the people who receive your quilts will not be looking for what you consider faults. They will be more interested in wrapping themselves in the love that your quilts carry.
Don't give up. Just make more quilts so you can practice more.

The first time I tried to do any machine quilting was horrible I was out of the ditch, My 12 little practise squares were birds nests and my poor faithful machine stopped! Meanwhile a 13 year old in the class could write her name,do circles, squares the whole enchilada1 What a day that was.I had visions of having a quilt done that day so I took my poor machine in for repair used little squares of muslin and batting and worked on these I still can't do it perfect but it is passable most of my loops are round and things are better. The only way I can do an form of SID is with my walking foot without it I'm out of the ditch and off the road

I can't stitch in the ditch either and I don't dare try free motion. My straight line quilting isn't straight at all but no one seems to mind.

I'm still there with my quilting but when I am done no matter how bad it looks I'm proud of myself for not giving up. Do I post a picture on here? Oh yes I do because I want to show off my accomplishment.

sounds like you had a day like mine....

I like SadieMae's idea - the decorative stitch instead of SID.

Ok, if you can't stitch in the ditch without going outsidet he lines, use some of those decorative stitches that work with the design and stitch in the ditch with that.

FMQ and do swirlies instead of stippling.

Ok do you doodle? If so what do you doodle?

I like this lol

Maybe you try too hard and are overcorrecting too much. I used to do this. Slow and tedious. Finally one night I thought I would just put the pedal to the metal in order to get done. And use the quilt in a dark corner of the living room. Actually, it came out pretty good and my SID was so much better when I wasn't "on top of it" all the time. Just a suggestion. I have one machine that is way better than the other for SID'ing. Don't give up.

I hate SID...do it very seldom. And the people I make quilts for just love the stippling. Little do they know that it is so easy. They ask..."How do you put all those little curli qu designs in there"? HaHaHa!!!! Let them keep thinking that design is really really hard. I'll never tell!!! What they don't know won't hurt them...just make me feel gooooood!!! So don't be so critical of your work...whatever you do you are creating something that a lot of people cannot do!!! Just go for it.
