    Altho I missed the prime autumn month of Oct, it's now done--it was pieced last year & I ran out of time--had to sew for birthdays & then Christmas. This is a milestone as I finally got the hang of meandering--it was tough climbing that curve :roll: FMQ needs more consistent stitch size and I had no success with straight line (echo) FMQ :( . It's 46x52.

    This is beautiful! I try not to give myself timelines on things anymore..unless it is a gift because I hate letting myself down or being to hard on myself...so just be glad you finished it and what a great beauty it is!

    I love it. Your quilting looks fine to me. I grew up in the thumb area (Millington) but haven't lived there for 20 years. Where are you at?

    I really love this pattern! I have been looking for this but only in a wallhanging size. It is absolutely darling. Where did you find it Irish Heart?
