    I would just stich in the ditch and call it good. Wish I could quilt that well.

    I think it looks great as-is. Are you using your DSM? Looks great!

    Yes, I am using my 6 month old Bernina 750 with the BSR, It's taking me quite a while to get to this point, I practiced frequently for a year on an 15-91 singer, then I got my new sewing machine- it took me 1-1/2 years of practicing to be able to do this good. Thank you to everyone for all the compliments and suggestions. I am currently working on the outside border, then I will make my final decision, but I think I will probably leave the squares alone. I will be sure to post a picture of the finished product.

    sometimes less is best, it looks great without any extra around the flower

    I think it looks great just the way it is. You did a great job quilting it.

    I wouldn't add anything else. To me, less is more.

    This looks great and think if you add anything else it would take away from your flower.

    The flower is just fine without any more quilting, when you quilt the border/sashing to the left it will look more finished. Beautiful feathers.
