They were a bit incredulous to learn the only thing my machine would do was a standard straight stitch. And that I was guiding the fabric. This was the 3rd time I've done this type of demo and I always enjoy hearing the comments and talking to people about my passion. I finished the quilt the next day at home.

You are one talented lady. Not only is your horse beautiful, the quilting around it is stunning as well. I, too, find if I can print it out and draw it on the quilt, I can usually follow a line...............but have NO TALENT in coming up with an image of my own. I can't draw a stick figure!!!! UGH
