Looks like you are going to be a great long-armer...

It is not easy. It is hard and sometimes I get discouraged. I did use rulers for this and I have to tell you that I love using them and would recommend trying them. Just makes it a little smoother.

I got the beginner set from quilter's rule. I didn't really know what to get and it looked like it had so much variety. I used a couple of the rulers with this.

It's wonderful! Looks like you're getting the hang of the LA.

looks like your coming along quite nicely. You're definitely getting the hang of the rulers! I'm also self taught. Like you, I watch videos & read as many books as I can get my hands on. I now can look at different designs & break them down into manageable sections. It gets easier with time & practice.
