Beautiful! Is the quilting FM or did you quilt in the hoop?
For the squares between the stars I used designs that I digitized to fit exactly in the squares, then I quilted them in the hoop. For the stars themselves, I used a ruler to quilt straight lines. For the rest and the borders I did semi-free motion. I used the free motion foot, but I drew a rough sketch to be sure I was laying down thread where I wanted & not veering too far off track. I think the FM was the easiest and the hoop work the hardest, making sure the hoop was in exactly the right place.
Thanks for asking.

How did you do the quilting on the machine? Did you use the embroidery function?
See answer #55.
