Looks like you are on the way to not hating the quilting part so much! :wink:
You wrote: The suns were pinned in the center of the black squares. So does this mean you drew the suns on paper and then pinned them to the quilt and quilted the design through paper and all? I'd like to try that and wondered how it worked for you. If this isn't how you did it can you elaborate?

Oh--be sure to trace with a perm marker--NOT pencil. The lead showed up on my first sun on one of the other quilts and I had to tear out the stitches. I actually noticed a bit of blue marker on a few threads...so I started sewing just outside the tracing line.
