Default I finished it!

Hi everyone...I finished this little quilt I was asking about machine quilting patterns for earlier. I knew I wanted to machine quilt it due to my wrists, but had never really done it before. I went with my mother-in-law to her church quilting group. I learned so much in the two days I was there. (Haven't been back because of work, but going for a little bit tomorrow.) After the first day, I came home and made a dozen quilt sandwiches to practice on. That really helped. I kept a list of setting for my machine and practiced whenever I could. I have so much more to learn, but this was fun. I did stitch in the ditch and the stipple. (I won't do both next time.) I think the hardest was stitching the binding. I am not so sure I will keep doing that by machine. We'll see. Anyway....here it is finished. It is 35x31inches.
