Pretty quilt - love the colors.

It was definitely worth the troubles and effort. It's lovely! :thumbup:

Absolutely worth the trouble what an elegant quilt! Re the Schmetz, I only use those and Superior thread or YLI to piece. I was very lucky when I got my Janome that a good friend had one already and she filled me in on the best needles, thread, feet, tension setting etc etc (although the latter do differ slightly between our machines) so my learning curve was significantly shortened!

perseverance
noun
1 steadfastness in doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving success

You should be proud. Amazing quilt, love the quilting too.

Gorgeous quilt! I just love your ribbon quilting.

Very nice! And I love the quilting, even if it was a pain in the er, um, neck! LOL

your perseverance certainly paid off, it's lovely :-D

A story with a happy and beautiful ending! Gotta love those tradewinds let alone a machine that gives you a hard time!

Very nice!

Nice quilt & you whipped it :)
