I did get the stencil that I created cut out with the exacto knife this week. I plan to quilt my nautilus shell pixel quilt with this large scale loopy meander.
Aashley Nice creation of a one of a kind template. Also love the piece of glass you used to cut on. Do you do stained glass???

Thinblebug - are you using netting to mark the stitching lines?

I agree that one does need sunglasses!!
Christine - That will be awesome once done.
Back from Wisconsin, DH is off with the youth group from church to pick up trash. Third load of laundry in about to go in, I have 4 quilts from church to stitch the backing down, so will start pining them and decide what color thread to use.
