You have all been so helpful! I love this forum. I will post pictures when I figure out how. I am almost half way finished with quilting the first quilt. It is going way faster than I thought it would. I did not mark this one because it is all 2" inch squares and I thought I could just go across the squares diagonally. So far I am pleased with the results. This is my first attempt at hand quilting. I like it.
