I guess I am the dissenter here in this group. I agree with everyone else about taking out and all the "tips", they are great...but....you know what??? I think that if you added some more "wonky, childlike quilting" in the rest of the quilt that it would be an adorable quilt!! A child would absolutely love it! Just do the additional quilting in a light gray or white or even invisable thread. This will continue to let you practice, but you will end up with something really cute in the end. Who ever said that all your quilts have to look "adult and perfect"???? There are lots of "styles" out there, lets use them ALL :D
Well, thats my opinion and I'm stickin' to it... :lol: :lol:
