This is my fourth Downy quilt. I'm going to take a break from these for a while. I had in mind to do some fancy free motion quilting in the center panel, but then I was so sick of seeing it in my sewing room, that I just did a simple diagonal grid. I actually like the way it looks on these quilts. I used a fancy stitch from my sewing machine on the narrow inner border, and I made some free-motion waves on the outer border. I kind of like the colors on this one, although I wasn't sure I would. Thank goodness it's done and off in the mail tomorrow.

New quilt label they give you--I like the old ones better.

Barbara...............your Shell Game quilt is really cute!! :thumbup: You have done a beautiful job making it, too. I think you deserve a break now, so you can catch up on the projects that you want to get done. You are a very generous person to make so many of these quilt's. I am so proud of you for this!!
