Practice Sandwich 1 - I learned not to get too close to the borders because you'll lose your grip/control of the sandwich.
No. 2 - I'm much better at following a pre-drawn line than quilting freehand. Purple ink shows areas I missed.
No. 3 - Not too bad. Individual leaves are more symmetrical. Again, I traced a line drawn with dissappearing ink.
No. 4 - Tried working on a smaller scale, in a defined shape. Needs work!
No. 5 - I kinda like this one. May expand it to make a symmetrical square shape. Had fun varying the thread color.
Doodles - When you run out of quilt sandwiches, paper and pen can help commit the motion to memory. On the left I added curliques to help me move from one place to another. On the right I did it the way we're "supposed" to per the tutorial. :)

Good job on your leaves! I haven't started stitching mine yet. For some reason, the leaves feel awkward to me. I've been drawing on my dry erase board. I think I just need to get brave and put the needle to the fabric.
