Great job and great idea. I know my guild does charity quilts and I'm working up the courage to bring one home to quilt.

Your quilts are all great! Your grid quilting is wonderful! I especially like the Southwestern one! Keep up the good work!

The walking foot makes it easy to do the grids, but I watched my sister do one with just masking tape. She lined up the first piece, stitched down each side, then kept moving the tape til she was done. It was expensive to buy the walking foot, because I have a Bernina, but it is nice to know that I can do it with other machines. The dual feed of the walking foo makes it less likely to stretch out of shape.

All are beautiful. Love the grid work. I mark my lines with quilters chalk and most of the time it does not wash out, I will have to try the tape. Thanks for sharing.
