I do have 1 question...in the second pic it looks like you've brought the quilting right to the very edge of the quilt? I thought that we were supposed to leave a space so that when we attached our binding it didn't cross the FMQ lines? It would be a lot easier if I'm wrong! LOL
Well It just depends on what design the FMQ is....if it is a stipple or fill in design I take it right to the edge because it just helps to stabilize the quilt. If it is a design that shouldn't be cut off by binding then I try to leave 1/4 inch.

Thanks ..I hope that helps.
