I got my darning foot today
#1
I had to post as it is part of my quilting history :) Here is my very first FMQ square. Needs a lot of work I know - but as it turns out 6 years ago - before I even thought of quilting, my wedding cake had the meandering stitch as the decoration. It was just meant to be I guess :)
Don't get me wrong - I don't think this is pretty in the least. Green with Red? :)

Low Shank? I probably should know what that means - but I don't :) I just did a search for my machine.

I agree with spacing out the design a bit more! Having the design so tight can also cause the puckering on the backside of the quilt. You are doing a great job though and you'll be a pro very soon! :)

That looks so much better than my first one! I almost posted today saying something like "I finally got the hang of it". I was able to FMQ two pot holders today and they actually came out nice! I had stayed away from practicing for over two weeks because I had become so frustrated with it. I sat down today and it was like I had been doing it all my life! It will get better for you, don't give up.
