A "trades person is only as good as their tools". How true. Lovely work.

Marian, it looks wonderful. Quilt on!

you've done a lovely job, your stitches are so nice and even and your heart shape is pretty and balanced. It must be an amazing machine to take you from not being able to free motion to that!

Very pretty

I just do a large meander, not shapes or designs.

​Well done!

Very nice. I guess there's still hope for me...been trying for
a couple of years. ;)

You know that song 'Joanna give me hope'? LOL
For those who don't know it....here it is.
All those who are still struggling with FMQ can sing with me. :D

Seriously, I did notice that my FMQ gets better with practice.
Just have to keep at it. Eight more years to go (maybe).

Oh my... you have done a great job. Congrats on your new machine.

Did you mark your design first? Your heart is so symmetrical. Keep up the good work.

Beautiful Work! I teach fmq at my lqs, and yes, it's amazing the difference a machine can make. Some machines simply will not FMQ. Congratulations for sticking with it.

Looks great! I admire you for not giving up. And, yes, the machine is important. There is so much 'help' available in classes, Craftsy and other such platforms, books, guilds and friends. I know I keep trying and I do get better because it gets to be more comfortable. Thanks for the encouragement.
