I can only give you some advice: enjoy!
Do not worry about perfection!
I cried the first day ... and pulled a long string and unstitched!
The second I sat down and said ... "That leaves as much as possible. I must learn!"
And you see the result of letting "flow" and not "force" get it right!
Good luck! My thoughts will be with you and think I'm smiling at her!
A big hug!

Thank you very much!
It is actually the second!
The first tests that were never finished! So I did not "try" but "do" to force myself to finish it!
In a blog was a FMQA (Free Motion Quilt Along - Christina - A Few Scraps (http://afewscraps.blogspot.com/)
I did the tests and when I went to a larger size could not handle .... blockade and left me.
So this said, "I won ... or I win!" So far, so 1-1! Hahaha!
I send a picture to see the proof!
A hug!
My first test

Thank you very much!
Look at the picture of the first race and see who comes to yours!
I think the difference now is that ... I decided to have fun and let my "perfeccionitis" side!
A hug!

I do not think so ... not so soon! Hahaha!
But learning is a step at a time!

Thank you very much!
That's what I did!
Was terrified of a larger size ... and the first time (last year) I got so bad I could not crash and continue the work ahead!
Now I decided to have fun and see what happens! And I liked the result!
A hug!
