This is a quickie quilt using what I had on hand..It is for my cousin who just had a baby boy...They are real big in rodeo and horses...I was going to do all boots and hats but just don't have time..Does this look OK are should I just discard it and do something else? Also do I dare try and free motion quilt this or hand quilt?? I have only free motion on small things?? Thanks

I think it's adorable and they will love it!

This is adorable! If time is an issue, try the machine quilting. They will love it!

Dianne, That is so cute! I have some cowboy pattern similar. I was wonder what to do with it. Now I know! Thanks for sharing your pictures. You did a great job.

This is perfect for a little buckaroo! I think you could get away with STID, but if you want to try you might do some free motion inside the hats and boots. You could also use just big loops that look like, if you can figure out what that means!

I think it's as cute as can be ... :D

It`s adorable just as it is !!!

So cute! I love that retro cowboy kid print.

wvdek 10-13-2010 12:43 PM

You did great. SID or overall meander would work fine. Your meander could look like roping if you get teh right moves going. Good job.

It's a beautiful quilt! Perfect for the cowboy-inclined.

virtualbernie 10-13-2010 12:53 PM

Since you stated that it was a "quickie" quilt and mentioned that you didn't have time to do all hats and boots, I would fmq it. You did a great job btw, I love it.

That is wonderful. Don't you dare discard it. It's perfect. Personally I would FMQ. I just finished my first one and once I got past my fears and just dove in, I loved it. I just felt such freedom. That's not to say I didn't make many mistakes but, we can only get better, right? Go for it. The family will love it no matter how you quilt it.

why laugh? you did great! Its soo cute.

Jim's Gem 10-13-2010 01:12 PM

Cute quilt

charismah 10-13-2010 01:17 PM

Hi Diane, I think your quilt is adorable. I would try to FMQ the trick is to spray baste it and you should do fine. I hesitate to FMQ anything bigger than a dq too...but teh 505 spray is a dream and works really well!

Maggiesmom 10-13-2010 01:20 PM

Love it.

auntmag 10-13-2010 01:21 PM

It is so cute. Please don't discard it.

Short an Sweet 10-13-2010 01:23 PM

too cute

shequilts 10-13-2010 01:23 PM

It's adorable. I'd FMQ it since it will be dragged around, washed often, and Lord knows what else in it's lifetime.

sewmuchmore 10-13-2010 01:30 PM

It is perfect and adorable. I would say it is soooooo cute to boot

It's just too cute
To give it the boot,
And your little buckaroo
Will really love it, too!

Sorry, just couldn't help myself. :oops: I agree, FMQ would be quick and easy and fun. :lol:

I think it's perfect! As for the quilting, I'd have to go with FMQ since I'm so slow with hand quilting.

jljack 10-13-2010 02:32 PM

I like it!! Just do stitch in the ditch outlining and staying on the seams, and it'll be fine.

oatw13 10-13-2010 02:34 PM

Why in the world would you discard it? I think it is super cute!

If you are comfortable with FMQ then go for it! It is really cute!

pookie ookie 10-13-2010 02:37 PM

I would love to receive this as a gift. It's a adorable.

jamsbuying 10-13-2010 02:41 PM

It's adorable. Give FM a try. You will find it fun and get better and better the more you do!
