And get a running start as you check out what I've been working on! :lol:

I finished this top last night.
It's the first quilt that I cut out with my GO! I used the 1 1/2 in strip cutter and the 6 in square. I do love the accuquilt GO! It took me less than 30 minutes to cut out this quilt.
I'm still a new quilter, and this is my first quilt with sashing. So don't look toooo closerly :)
I was going to try to FMQ using my singer, but I think it may be too big. I'll have to give that some thought.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for looking!

7ft square

The back, don't mind the strings. I still have to clip them.

That's a beautiful design. isn't it amazing how sometimes the simplest design can be so striking? I really like your choice of colors.

FMQ can be a challenge, depending on the throat space of your machine, but it can be done even with a small machine. Just take your time. If you do some kind of design in each square and don't try to "travel" too much, I think you'll have good success.

I'm sorry I don't have a horse but I didn't see anything wrong. I think you made a fabulous quilt.

What a neat pattern!! I love it! It sure looks good to me!! As for quilting--I'd hand it to a long arm expert and avoid the frustration. :wink:

I want to see your quilt inspector in full!!
