You have a beautiful quilt, and an adorable fur baby! By the way, shadow quilting is my favorite because I too, cannot stay in the ditch. It is following the seam with the pressure foot, so you have an even distance everywhere.

So....is shadow quilting when you quilt 1/4" away from the seam on both sides of it?
