Ummm........... you haven't seen my attempts LOL :D:D
My sister just told me to practice on the quilt I'm making for her b/c she'll never know the difference ( she doesn't sew).
But I really can't do that. It's going to be a beautiful quilt and I don't want to ruin it!!!
Not sure what to do about this except practice practice practice! :thumbup:

I have never had a pleat or pucker even with stitch in the ditch. I do baste my quilt very well. If you are worried about that basting spray keeps it together really well and if it can't shift you can't have a pleat. I do use an attachment that moves the top and bottom fabric at the same rate. Puckers might be a tension issue.

Maybe tension in my shoulders. I don't really have a big issue with the puckers, although I will get a little one every now and then. I don't have a lot of room with my machine to maneuver, so FMQ seems like it would be hard to do. But I'm practicing on small pieces and working up to it! I will eventually conquer my fear (maybe!).
