    As a longarm quilter, this just yells out to me to put in on the Gammill and start in - all custom of course. It it beautiful now and will be absolutely georgous when quilted and laying on the bed. Great Job!

    Goreous quilt, I usually do a large meander-large stipple, like that.

    WOW that's gorgeous!! I couldn't begin to tell you how to quilt it since I don't do hand quilting.

    Great quilt. I think you should handquilt it if you already have experience handquilting. Or machine quilt it yourself. Sometime LAers overdo the quilting. That quilt needs quilting that will not overshadow your beautiful work. All the best with whatever you decide. Happy quilting!
    PS love your country, have been there a couple of times. Good memories.

    It's beautiful. If you like to hand quilt, it would be a keepsake. Even something as simple as quilting 1/4 inch away from the seams, with this intricate a design, would be sensational. You can't really go wrong on this one.

    I love your quilt Sharon. It is big so if you haven't got a long arm then coping with it under an ordinary domestic machine would be a real challenge in MHO. The patterns are quite intricate in the centre so I would quilt a minimal amount there, and then in the ditch nearer the edges. I wish you luck whatever you do and it really is lovely.
