    Beautiful job on the table runner. As far as bigger projects, just go for it!! Like one of the other girls said, one block at a time. My first project was a queen sized memory quilt for my son and his wife. I always was a little excessive, Tee Hee :wink:

    That is really neat you made a super job of the quilting. It is daunting though, I am not good at all.

    Your quilting looks so dainty! I like that pattern and who ever told you that they all need to be exact matches of each other anyway? If you want that...you need to use a stencil. I really love to put on the right music and go to the zone and just have fun. I'm the only one who really cares what it comes out looking like anyway. I don't live near any quilt police!! :wink: :wink: :lol: Enjoy it and above all...have fun!!

    I think you get a real "atta girl" for that. Very nice!

    Just beautiful! Is that REALLY FMQ? Terrific job! I can only do really cool pebbles.

    It's gorgeous and your quilting is great. It really enhances it. You don't have a thing to worry about. Go for it.

    I am trying SO hard to learn to FMQ and I think you did a fabulous job!!!! Thank you for sharing-maybe someday mine will look that good too!!!
    I have to agree with Marcia. That table runner is absolutely gorgeous and your FMQ looks like it was done by an experienced quilter. If this is your "first try", I'm anxious to see what beautiful work you will be showing us in the future. You go, girl!
