    Default Learned some things with this one
    This is a quilt from my first quilting class...a Craftsy class called Quilting in Negative Spaces. The pattern was one that was from the class. I learned a different way of doing swirls than what I'm used to doing. Learned a bit about pebbling. And I really liked quilting the tiles that are at the bottom 1/2 of the quilt. But, mainly I learned that I don't like quilting this densely all over the quilt...ha. I will do this in the background of blocks or to make an applique stand out, but my hat is off to those of you who can quilt this densely.

    Looks great to me. I don't like dense quilting and just mostly do a large FMQ.

    i'm with you, I don't like the dense quilting either. Too much quilting makes it stiff not cuddly.
