Thank you for that sweet comment you left, too!

That quilting is only some plain old walking foot work. About half of it is straight lines; outlining, echoing, SITD. The other half is curved lines but still done with the walking foot. If you can reduce the presser foot pressure on your machine, it makes it easier to turn those curves. I like allover wavy lines with my walking foot, too. I actually do my best quilting with the walking foot. The stitches come out nice and even. Hope to get a long arm one day, if I ever come into some money!

Love all three postings. And its great that you can post again and let us know you are still quilting in your busy schedule. Thanksgiving this week will probably mean a very busy week.

Happy Thanksgiving to all; safe journeys and blessed day to all.
