I'll bet you LOVE how it turned out, because it is just gorgeous.

Maybe a dumb question, but I know nothing about long arms --How long does it take to quilt something so intricately like that? It is beautiful.

I can't tell if I love the quilt or the quilting better. OK, I vote for both!! I could gaze upon it for hours.

You should name it 'GORGEOUS in Purple' It's absolutely breath taking. Good work! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! This was all freehand except for the curved crosshatch where I used a ruler. I started it last Saturday before we went to a ballgame in St. Louis and got the 1st border on one end done. I ripped out the stitches several times before I finally decided on the type of feather I wanted in the setting pieces. I've worked on it every day since then and finished the binding last night. I did take a break and go boating on the lake one afternoon. :-) But I was motiivated to get it done while I was home as I've got two customer quilts to do (my 3rd and 4th customer quilts!! )
