Previously I have mainly done straight lines with a walking foot and only on table runners and baby quilts. I realize it is not anywhere near perfect but this is a great way to practice for when I eventually quilt one for myself.
    Great job on free motion. I think I threw my first attempt away it was so bad. Yours is great. Keep up the good work.

    That stinks. Hopefully it won't be too bad to rip out.
    I just got a new Elna and it quilts like a dream.
