No polite way to say how bad this is!

I'm right there with you... just learning to FMQ... it's a love - hate relationship. I love being creative but hate that I'm a perfectionist and just HOPE I'll get a little better with practice. Hang in there!

As a new FMQ'er, I was carefully doing meandering by starting in the center of my quilt and intending to do one quarter at a time. Sometime during the process it must have clicked for me because before I knew it, I'd done the entire quilt without stopping once. Your potholder looks just fine! Do another project and it will click for you too.

i've started fmq on my dgd's 1st quilt. i have put it off, and put it off. i got going, and i won't win any prizes, but it is really fun! i was truly surprised! i turned on my today's country music channel and ran the machine faster than i moved the quilt and it just seemed to work! it was a lot easier than the stid quilt i just finished for my son. it's so much faster and so much more fun. i wrote my dgd's name in several places on the quilt. i plan to add other messages as i finish it up. it will be years before she finds them and can read them but it will be a reminder of how much, and how long her grammi has loved her. <3
