You know, I am really starting to get the hang of the machine quilting on the smaller pieces. Tonight I did some more loopy loops on the other wall hanging and got it all quilted and ready for binding. It seems to be a combination of things that has bolstered my confidence. Having the one machine set up and ready to machine quilt at any time is a big help. The machine being set into the cabinet, so that it is level with the table, really makes a huge difference. I would never have thought it would make that big of a difference, but it does.
I know I can't make just loopy loops forever, but as I gain confidence with the smaller pieces and get comfortable with the loopy loop design, I feel like I can just slowly work myself up to larger pieces. Then maybe I will tackle a different design. No hurry. And maybe part of it is just doing some quilting as often as possible that helps, too. Whatever it is, I'm pleased.
"Whatever it is, I'm pleased." And that's what matters! Good for you!
