Very nice! How do you go about FMQ ing on your FW? I'd love to figure out how to do that. Thanks

I have a granddaughter that used pink & brown in her baby's room. I had never heard of it before. I guess that shows my years old.

Well, I bought a walking foot for my FW from sew-classic that works just fine for straight stitching. For curves, I have a darning foot with a cover for the feeddogs. Some people say that FMQ will cause the motor to overheat but I've not had a problem... I don't sew it that fast and I take breaks. I'm not sure yet what color thread to use for quilting but I think brown since I've used the same fabric for the backing.

Thanks to everyone for their kind comments.

I'm not much for doing animals and recognizable shapes but I have to say I like the elephant!!!
Great color choices for it too. It has an "Indian" feel about it.
