It looks like you have the hang of it! It is looking wonderful!

Very pretty and I'm sure they'll enjoy it.
I've got to get my cataracs taken care of. When I first read this I read, "I got loaded tonight for my son and fiance...." I'm thinking, why would someone tell everyone here that they got loaded???? Why would her son and his fiance want her to get loaded???? Luckily I backed up and re-read the post. LOL

It took many times of loading a quilt before I felt comfortable with it. It's not so bad now and I can get it loaded fairly quickly (to me anyway).
I have done a little practice on scraps and I actually did better on the practice than when I tried it on a quilt. Nervous, I guess. I need to keep the tail ends of the backing on after a quilt if it's long enough and just put some scrap batting and fabric on it to practice after each one.

Got a little more done this evening. I'm on the third row of panto and my thread broke for the second time on this row so, I'm done for the night. It was going so good, it didn't mess up once on the first two. :x
