Is this quilted on a Longarm Machine? I am in the market to purchase one, and am very impressed with your quilting job. What machine did you use? How did you do such beautiful quilting on the Longarm? (assuming that is what you used!!)

I used circle templates. I purchased a set of even circles (2,4,6,8,10,12 inches) years and years ago (I don't even know if a person can purchase that many in a set now.) Then about 2 years ago I decided I needed on uneven set (3,5,7,9 inches). Now I can mix the two sets and have about any size I need.

In the quilting on this quilt I never stitched completely around any circle template. I jumped from seam to seam so I have very few stops and starts, but the ending result often looks like I stitched circles.

Hope this helps, Have Fun!!
