So I need to ask - how many hours of practice did you have to FMQ so beautifully? Is the border a transferred pattern or did you just eyeball and go? I wanna FMQ like you!

To answer your question Mommamac, I practiced for 1 - 2 hours on small fabric/batting squares, then decided to dive into the quilt. For the border, I had a template heart I traced onto the fabric periodically. The line/loop between the hearts I eyeballed. To be honest... the hearts in the photo are the best of the hearts I FMQ'd. Some of the others are not as smooth! :lol:
