Glad I am inspiring you Aggi, its good to spread it around, thats how I got the confidence, little by little to experiment on each block, you can see my first blocks are very basic and classic and as my confidence grew so did the detail in the blocks, I was going to hand quilt alot of the blocks, but I am itching to get it finished now, and having bought this machine, it seems silly not to use it to its full potential...and the time saved is a blessing, the sooner I finished this one....the sooner I can get started on the next project!!

You were asking about the variegated threads, this is the first thing I have done any sewing with them!! My first reaction was it has to be symetrical, but I have lightened up and now can appreciated the random effects!!

What do you think of my assistant - look how sulky her face is when I caught her having a sneaky nap on my quilt while I went to 'spend a penny' lol!! :wink:
