Can I please ask what turkey track stitching is? I haven't heard of that one. Ta

I see lots of stitch-in-the-ditch around the baskets and blocks. Feathers in the background....

I just love every thing about your quilt! If you are as good of a hand quilter as you are a piecer you should hand quilt it. If you have more money than time sendit to a la quilter. Hope that helps you decide. I love your word "scoobie".

Greetings Sharon, Absolutely Stunning. A little bit of old fashioned tying off might add interest to some machine quilting. Auntie B.

Wow! I'm not a very good quilter and wouldn't dream of this challenge. It is so beautiful. I would have a professional do it!

I am attaching a small segment of one of my quilts that I had long arm quilted, it is a segment similar to a block on your quilt, just thought you may like to take a look. Hope it helps!
