Practicing, practicing, and more practice...

I have had my first play with Sweet Susie..
...not really much to write about...but I had to start somewhere didn't I...How come it looks so easy when someone else does it!...
Getting the tension just right is so fiddly and a bit of a pain...but, if that's not right, nothing is right, the stitches need to be spot on...can you see I wrote my name..just for fun..
The little bit that looks the best to me, is the loops and little hearts...that's fun to do, but I really couldn't do that to every quilt I quilt...could I?
So back to more practicing......♥

Hugs Julia ...♥

Hi Julia
