    I don't know what "McTavishing" means. I do like your quilt and I personally think the quilting looks good. In fact, your quilt is quite pretty.

    I don't see what you see. We are all our worst critic. I think it is wonderful and I really like it.

    Looks great to me! When I watched Karen McTavish's video, she really stressed to use matching threads, that helps show the quilting, not the stitches. But again- I think yours looks very nice.
