your quilting has improved so much.. Learning things takes practice. You're definitely getting it, it looks so smooth in the quilting lines, you're definitely teaching your muscles

Thanks so much for the compliments. FMQ isn't real natural for me but it is getting to the point I can relax a little and hope for the best.

and, it is really showing. I was terrible at first, but Leah Day had a thing where she put up a new design every day, and I practiced at least half an hour each day. Then I could start seeing the improvement.I'm still not great, but I not embarrassed about my quilting. And I often get compliments

I think your stones are okay. The thing to remember is that when finished, we are all going to be in awe and not focused on any one part. I am already in awe!
