Wanted to share how I quilted this top. I ran a diagonal from corner to corner, following down the middle of one of the pink squares line. Put the guide on the walking foot at 1-1/4" and did all the rows, only one way. Didn't go back and make the 90 degree cross hatch. I do like the way it looks. I used scraps from my last two wool batt quilts and it give a nice puffy look.

Judy it is beautiful! I just love the colors in this and I really like how you have quilted it!
I am actually going to play with mine today! I had really fallen behind on a lot of my sewing orders! I mend so I can quilt! Hate it but it keeps the money rolling in and the quilts rolling out!
I had purchased enough fabric to make two of the quilts because I was in a hurry to start and found out I started the wrong one! But it is amazing how there are always babies being born! There is a baby girl due same time as the boy so decided to go forth and finish both!! I will put up some pictures when I get further along! They are looking quite Amish in the no print department but I think I like that and will back both with really cute fabric.
Since I rarely quilt with Flannel this will be somewhat of a challenge, but my bestie assures me using quilting starch helps with the pulling on the flannel!
Have a wonderful day ladies
