Thank you so much, everyone, for the nice comments. You've lifted my spirits! I was feeling a little down because I'm not very patient and I want to be able to FMQ like a pro NOW! I know in reality, it takes hours and hours to learn how to quilt like that so I just have to roll up my sleeves and get practicing! :-) BTW...I love this board. You are all so friendly and helpful! Thank You!
