Beautiful quilt, Can't wait to see the quilting.

Have the center three bars done and with each completion, even with my clumsy quilting, it's taken my breath away. My dad is going to have one heck of a nice quilt if I can keep it up.

I'm marking the vines and starting the quilting on the lavender tomorrow. It's taking about 4 hours per bar, which considering my inexperience I think is pretty good. Trying to keep the stitches even, but every so often I still get a long run, and usually butted up against a seam. Kind of hard to start a run when you have a lot of material to make the first stitch in.

I’m finding my preference in needle size getting smaller the more I do; can’t load as many stitches, but I’ve better control.
