Chunky Churndash-FMQ finish!
 

I completed this quilt top a few months ago. It stayed that way until last night when I bought the backing. Starting around midnight I basted the quilt. Then to the machine for quilting! All of the quilts I have done up until now have been SITD. I spent some time yesterday practicing a hooks/swirls motif and decided to use that.

This will be gifted to one of my godsons.

I like it.

Very nice stitching. Love your color choice too

Lucky godson! :) Your quilting turned out really, really nice. Keep up the good work and looking forward to seeing more of your beautiful quilts.

Kudos to you, you are living proof that one can quilt and quilt very well on a DSM with a small throat area. Great job!

Fabulous pattern choices for this pretty design.

Very nice! I'm sure the recipient will be happy!

Very modern looking quilt. Nice fabric selection.

Your Godson will love that quilt! I love the pattern, choice of fabric, and you did such a great job on the quilting! I'm amazed you can do so much work late at night...I would have to do it all over in the morning if I tried that!

I work overnights. So on my "days" off, I am usually up at night and asleep during the day. Quilting is a great hobby for 3rd shifters. Keeps me busy while the other half is sleeping!

Lovely quilt

Thanks Donna! I have done up to a large lap quilt on my machine (6" throat).

Very pretty!

I like your interpretation of the churn dash, it's cool and different. You did a good job with the quilting.

nicely done

I agree with Yooper 100%! That was the best thing I learned when I went to a FM class. I came home and told me husband he had just saved $15,000!!! :D

Your quilt and FM really is wonderful. Especially since you did so much during the night!

Wow - great quilting! You did a wonderful job.

Wish I could machine quilt as well as you have on this quilt. It will make a nice gift.

Looks great! Well done!

Lovely quilt! Your love and talents shine through in this. Such a special gift for him!

great late night quilting

You are one speedy lady!! I would need a month to do all of that quilting. Great job from choosing colors, to piecing and your quilting.

Lovely quilt and quilting! Stitching circles isn't easy and you have done an amazing job, nice work!!

That is very striking

very pretty

Your quilting is great! I'm so glad you posted this: I'm doing a scrap quilt with a similar setting and I've been hung up because I couldn't quite visualize the the 6x8 block setting. Thank you!

You did a great job.

Great one!!! You sound like a 'night owl' like me. I get and idea at midnight or later and just have to follow thru!

Very nice..really like your choice of aqua for the binding. :)

Great fabric and wonderful FMQ with that small throat on the DSM. I have that same machine and I can't manage the bulk of the quilt in it. You did a great job.

Wow, great job on the quilting and the quilt. It looks wonderful.

What foot are you using on machine to quilt it? Good job! Circles are hard to master..

Beautiful quilt and quilting. Perfect for a guy.

I used a walking foot to SITD to secure the fabrics together. Then a FMQ foot for the rest. I did the circles in three sections, they turned out better than I expected!

What a great quilt for a grandson!!! Love the color combo and your FMQ looks great!

Great job on the quilting.

Nicely done!

I worked the night shift many years and it really was hard on the days I had off. Your quilt and quilting are beautiful.

My favorite part of the quilt is all the textures of the fabric. Great quilt
