What soft, pretty fabrics! I envy your machine quilting skills. I just can't seem to get the knack of doing it well, and your quilts are always beautiful.

How can I get on your Christmas list?

Hey Eddie, I have a silly question about your free motion quilting. Do you draw the stipple lines on the quilt top with a washable pencil first or do you really just sew freely, meandering wherever? Your little curves look so nice and round, no weird angles and points like I get when I try to FMQ.

Oh my. That's a gorgeous quilt. Those colors and wonderful. She's going to love it. Not only are you a gifted quilter, you sure know how to schmooze the in-laws! Congrats on your new sewing machine. I can't imagine the beauties you'll turn out on that.
