    That came out great. I have pictures of my first quilt using FMQ on my home machine. I practiced and practiced on samples first and then just went for it. I have close up photos and I take close up photos of all the quilting I do on all the quilts. I can see the difference. I can see where I finally relaxed and my stitches are much more even and free flowing.

    Cute quilt and nice quilting. I've been trying some FMQing on my Janome6600 also over the last couple years. I'm not too good at it, but use the "riding by on the galloping horse" idea to approve my work. ( I hate practice so I usually just go for it- many of my things are charity quilts made for practice and recyling purposes anyway)

    Thumbs up frog quilt

    Fantastic and your FM is so much better than mine--I guess I need to practice, practice, practice.
