    Tommorrow if the new TinLizzie shows up, I'll start quilting it. Any ideas on how I should quilt it?

    Pretty colors and pattern. I don't have any suggestions for the quilting, whatever you're comfortable doing?

    Wow that is a beautiful top! If you have not quilted on a long arm before, I agree you should practice first!

    I have rented the machine that I purchased and had classes. I will practice some, but anxious to get started. I pieced this quilt for practice. If its not perfect, thats ok.

    My two cents, since the quilt has white space, fans would be pretty and showy, just IMHO.

    Feathers if you can manage it to soften the sharp edges and corners.
