So I decided to do a small "Charisma Curl" design around the snowman...after I outlined all of her applique.....and I stippled everything else. there will be a lot going on and I didn't want to take away from anything.
I quilted everything freehand on my INNOVA...no computer or pantograph quilting.
Thanks for looking
