I first want to say a big thank you to your daughter, her husband and YOU and your family!!!

I like Vicki's idea on the quilting, also.
Your MIL's quilt is beautiful!!!

Ok so, you think a wavy diagonal stitch. Across the whole quilt? only across the watery part, across including the windows of animals. Both directions or only one? I'm not sure I am picturing this.

And beautiful quilt! I always end up doing SID on any that I machine quilt but I'm whatever you decide will look great!

I need to get this quilt done but am at a loss on the quilting, so of course I am working on my fall block exchange
Let me try again.

I notice that the file names on your two sets of pictures are the same. I think that's causing the confusion as to which one gets displayed. You might PM admin and ask him to look at the problem.

They are in the correct places at the moment, except you have to scroll down on this one to see the quilt. I am not going to mess with it anymore. I think I redid these pictures 4 times yesterday.

Gayle, I'm just glad "to get" to see your daughter upon
her arrival home. She is beautiful and I am so thankful
she is here safe and sound. Tell her thanks for me!

I think I would do the wavy lines across the whole quilt on the diagonal in a matching or invisible thread. I think it would look really sharp, but it's your project, so think on it a while.

What's the name of the pattern??? I saw some train fabric the other day for hubby that would look perfect in that pattern. (Hubby is retired engineer and I've yet to make him a quilt.... :roll: )
