I like the loops. It was kind of obvious today, day 11, I tried to do some different patterns on some small scraps... loops seemed to just keep coming out of my machine :) !

Everyone else is doing such beautiful work...I definitely feel like the amateur that I am with today's practice pieces! I just couldn't get what I wanted.
Happy Quilting!

You are doing great! I notice that your curves are getting smoother - that is a huge step.
Little pieces are much harder to quilt on, because you have no space to hold the piece properly.
Good for you - keep it up!
Amanda, I'm brand new at this, bought a sketch book and have been sketching before drawing on the pattern, then FMQing over the marks. Between that and slowing down considerably, my work has been progressing nicely. I've also been watching FMQers on youtube and reading Harriet Hargrave's book on Heirloom Machine Quilting before bed. I'm using 14x14 squares now because I agree that working with something you can 'hold onto' is easier!
hey Amanda I think you are doing great; and you are not the only one out there feeling like a beginner!! My efforts pale compared to many but I am learning heaps by reading all the comments,doing a bit of 'research' and then just practising. I'm sure Rome wasn't built in a day and we will get there!! Keep up the good work.
Amanda - I can see your improvment... keep it up!
