    I stuck with it and finished my first FMQ. The I Spy quilt was promised to my Grandson so i took a stab at FMQ. It is definetly far from consistant but it was great practice. He doesn't care about the loops being "off" so all worked out! I may just try more FMQ in the future and see if i can't master it like some of you experts out there!!!!

    Yours looks just fine. My DD gets a kick out of the little inconsistencies in mine. She says it makes her quilt "one of a kind".

    I think it looks great! Whos to say the loops arent exactly as you planned them. :) I think it looks more natural and not like a machine did it..
