Yes, very nice. A modern look to it I wish I could achieve.

Check out my flying geese tutorial in the tutorial section. It will make them easy and accurate. When you are unhappy with a project, please remember, we all have to start somewhere. We learn new and better things with every attempt. Your first effort is worthy of applause!

Your quilt is gorgeous! Wonderful use of color for the design.

Also--- I just bought a 1/4 inch foot for my machine and am so happy--I should not have waited so long. I encourage you to find one. I found one to fit my machine and it didn't cost that much. I think it was Sew-for-less.com.

I actually bought one today when I picked up my sewing machine from the doctor. He had broke Thursday and I got him back this morning!

Oh sweetie, finish it please. It is lovely and much nicer than my first top (that sat for 6 years because I knew there was a big mistake in the middle and just did not want to go in a fix it--but now it has a place of honour on our guest bed.) You should be proud of how well you did without the proper tools. Please finish it and use it too.

I don't think it is gastly at all especially for your first one. You did good. I make flying Geese by using a paper piecing method. Alot easier.

N. Ft Myers? My parents live there.
