Thanks, this was very informative. I have tons of Isacord poly I use for machine embroidery and I think I'm going to try quilting with it.

We have to keep reminding some of the "old" quilt police "There are no rules in quilting".

I really like some of her quilting designs, but does she do any that are not fill designs. I think it makes the quilt too stiff if it's quilted that much. Would it be possible to enlarge them or would it be harder to maneuver? I'm looking for designs for my quilts- tired of doing the same old stuff.

Great tute. I gave up trying to please the "quilt police" a long time ago. If you are going to judge my quilt, you better have a clipboard in your hands at a show

Leah is a member of the board and commented on a post last week. You could either pm her or email her website. She seems very open to suggestions.
