If you are following the line <g> it is only a matter of time before you start making swirlies! Just wait and see!
This quilt is exactly how many of us got up the nerve to free motion quilt! ... with or without a long-arm quilting machine;-)

From your lips to God's ears, Omak, and thank you for the positive encouragement to all of us who aspire to creating something as equally beautiful.
And thanks for posting the photo and story behind this finally finished quilt, thequilteddove, I'm impressed with your determination to bring out the best in this initially disappointing, by your account, and needy top... where would most of us be if someone hadn't given us some TLC? I'm smiling big because this reminded me of what I told one of my adopted rescue fur babies..."I'm goin' to love you pretty!"
