what class were you in Christine? i took Fridays class. perhaps we met there!

Are you kidding! It looks beautiful, good choice of a quilt to use for the first time trying something. Your quilting made that quilt pop and I think the pattern of the quilt helped your quilting. Very nice.

I don't know what McTavishing is and I am not a machine quilter, but it looks pretty good to me. I read somewhere, maybe here, that if you give your quilt to a non-quilter they will never know the difference. I notice all my mistakes, never had anyone else do so. Keep improving for your own satisfaction, but don't beat yourself up.

It's great! I don't understand why you think it looks awful.....so pretty!!

OHHHH! I love the colors. Which pattern is it? I really do like stars--guess I don't see many errors, but maybe not sure what I am looking for....I can give you my address if you REALLY don't like it...lol...

I think it looks great! Keep practicing but do it on paper. I tell my students to put paper into a plastic sleeve protector and use a dry erase marker. Find a pattern for the Mctavishing, enlarge it and stick it in the sleeve. Your doodles become your designs. Good luck. It's a beautiful quilt!

Beautiful! What is the name of this pattern Please

You have got to be kidding me!! That is BEAUTIFUL. I would love to be able to do this. The quilt is gorgeous.

Well, I think that it is beautiful. BrendaK

Yes! Friday afternoon's class! I sat way up front in the left corner when we were still at the tables. I, too, was impressed with how humble and down-to-earth she was. It was my first time to go to that show and my first time to take classes at a show, but I will definitely go again. It was a great experience!

Well, I just think it's beautiful. So There!!

I think it looks great!!! Haven't got a clue what Mctavishing is. But, I'm going to find out. Your quilt is beautiful!

Jeez, that looks pretty good to me! But then, I'm still quilting in the ditch and practicing FMQ! Keep working on it.

I have not tried that yet but I think you did a fabulous job! Looks beautiful!

It looks pretty nice to me. I am sure you are your own worst critic so relax and enjoy the learning process. Our guild motto is "Finished is better than Perfect." Keep up the good work!

Looks good to me.

You did a really good job, youshould see my first one! I love that pattern what is it called?

I love the colors of your quilt. Looks good to me from pics.

I think it is great. like the quilt an quilting. joyce j

What is "not so good"? I like what I see. It pleases me. When I would look at it, it would make me smile. Are you being a way tad too hard on yourself?

Tell you what, I will send you my address, etc. Deal????

Seriously, it is beautiful!!!!

I have to agree with everybody else - what's awful about it? I haven't even attempted - I'm still trying to get better at ruler work! LOL You did an AWESOME job!

Pat

sheesh this is great colors thanks

hey, no complaining ! Some of us dont even have a longarm !! Really, it looks magnificent !

I would be happy with the result...

I do not see anything wrong. Ginger is right! It's good enough for her (or anyone) and she is comfy too!

I think that it looks wondeful!! You did a great job!

It looks like all the McTavishing quilting I've seen on award winning quilts.

Looks great to me, and your furry friend sure seems to enjoy it! Or is he/she looking for tiny errors it? LOL

I agree with Ginger! I think it looks pretty great!

Looks great to me!

I gotta say Dee, I don't see the awful...

Beautiful quilt. Beautiful quilting. Don't be so hard on yourself. Plus your dog loves it, too.

My thoughts exactly... Ginger has exquisite taste! I love this quilt, every single thing about it. The pattern? Fabulous! The colors/fabrics? Gorgeous! The quilting? Spectacular! I think you did a great job!

Your quilt is beautiful, don't be too hard on yourself. As to McTavishing, I've heard a lot of definitions, but what, exactly, is it. Define the term for me, please.

I think you did fantastic quilting your quilt.

I think your quilt look great!!!

Agreed. That looks amazing. I have no idea what McTavishing is but all around that looks awesome and perfect and I agree that you're probably just being overly critical. But then again, if you're trying to enter it in a show I can understand but still.. it's amazing.. wait.. It's soooo bad, you should send it to me never to be released into the world again.. I'm a hermit and too new at this to notice any flaws so it's only suitable for MEEEE. Yea.. that's it.. let's go with that.

Well, I think it's beautful! I like it!

I think you did very well for a first attempt. Remember, we are always our own worst critics
