This was the first quilt I ever made. I stitched in the ditch around the phots and sashing but didn't know there was any other kind of quilting.
If I had to do it again, I would stitch in the ditch around the photos but do some other form of quilting on the borders.
(I also didn't have a clue about squaring up blocks so had a little distortion.)
Have fund - I loved putting the pictures to fabric!
