Thanks all for the compliments. I did not learn about chain piecing until the very end. We did resolve the machine issues...we bought a new one. ha ha ha The machine I was using, was a very cheap machine that could only do normal and zig zag stitches. My daughter-in-law just picked it up..and she cried when she got it.

looks as if you are beyond any advice I could offer.

very nice!

Awesome work can't wait to see your next! Thanks for sharing.
