    Finally was able to finish the quilting for my hummingbird quilt. For the first time, I used my embroidery machine to quilt the design in the while squares. I think it turned out nice, but I don't think I'll try to use my embroidery machine for anything larger than a lap quilt. It was very interesting getting it hooped right and then arranged around the machine so the design would stitch out. Enjoy!

    It's lovely! I love hummingbirds. I like the use of the quilted design in the solid squares. This is so bright and cheerful.
