I think you did a beautiful job on the runner and the quilting! :D:D:D

You did a great job! I've only done FMQ on 2 quilts so far. I was really scared to try it for fear I would ruin the full size quilt. When I first started I had a hard time getting a grip on the fabric and moving it. My shoulders and necks were getting sore because I was tenting my fingers to grip the quilt with my fingernails. After about 20mins of that I remembered reading on this board that machine quilters wear quilting gloves or rubberized fingertip goves. So I dashed to the LQS and bought a pair. What a differnce that made. I really have had fun FMQing now!
