Dreaming! Just a quick note! Remember that after you wash and dry the quilt (whether for yourself or for gifting), the FMQ looks amazing. Any bumps in your FMQing never, never show! The puckering of the fabric hides everything. I suggest that you pick one of your smaller tops, sandwich it with adhesive (I use Sullivan's). Find a larger FMQ pattern (I make mine larger by increasing the size of the print on my printer) and go for it! Wash and dry your quilt and you will be amazed at how little the quilting really shows. Quilting has a job! It is to help hold all those seams together for a long time! Good luck!
