Yes - I used the darning foot. I sooooo enjoyed doing this - it took me about 9 hours to quilt in total. Split down into two sessions.

Actually the green sashing was funny! I was originally going to put in white sashing, then my DH and I remembered the mess our cats make of my quilt that is currently on our bed - with muddy paws.....

So we went looking for something else and found the green. Our DD says it looks like 'Frog Spawn' ha ha - which is partly why I did the pebbling on the quilting - thought it would look good!

Thanks for all the kind words guys!
