learning, growing

I guess when I figure out this block a day thing I will have to follow Bernina's advice and make a "foot book" so i can learn how to use these (expensive +) tools.  i.e. feet.
One of the major problems I'm coming across is 'tapering".   I sew straight and then the last 1/2 inch is never the correct width.  I have learned over the past 3 blocks not to release my left hand and guide the fabric through the foot.  I also have learned to stop watching that darn needle that mesmerizes me and watch the fabric guide.    And, yes I'm using my stiletto and iron more this past month then in 3 years.
check-out the points at the triangles!!!
