Now to get to the hand-quilting practice...

practice, practice, practice... I think I've heard that here before!
:-D :-D
Great job!
Too late now .... sorry, I forgot to mention this earlier. WAtch that your zigzag isn't too close/tight, or it'll be hard and thick and can somewhat create a ridge ... and make it difficult for you to do your hadnquilting thru. Good Luck!
Yes... I discovered this is important... Fortunately, I cut a few very small scraps to check this before zigging my two pieces together...

Again, thank you everyone for sending info!! I just LOVE this place and all my quilting friends!!!
