It turned out wonderful and I love your colors. I have done FMQ on large quilts by doing them in sections. You might consider doing that another time. You did just a great job on the whole project.

I think it is beautiful. You are too hard on yourself. It takes a lot of practice to do FMQ and with a big quilt takes a lot of manuvering to get it quilted at all. You will get better with practice.

Once you wash and dry it, the fabric will crinkle and even you won't be able to find the mistakes.

We are our own worst critics.

I like the quilt and think it is beautiful. I've even used that same backing fabric on 2 of my own quilts (in different color combinations).

Great job..looks very pretty..when I did my first one (on reg machine) I don't LA..I did mine standing up..on my kitchen bar..I stood at the end of the bar..looking at the machine from the side..left room for the quilt on both sides to rest..I'll try to take a picture of that tomorrow..as I read this it might not make sense to you !!
