Default Star Bouquet Quilt

This is my very first attempt at Long arm Quilting. It is not perfect but had a great time working with the machine and all. The instructor said practice, practice, practice! I did a meander. I am trying to decide if I want to invest in a long arm quilting machine. I did a meander. The pattern is Star Bouquet pattern. I used some of Henry Glass’s Botanical Collection. Thanks for looking.

yeah, a photo. I left you a note on the other one telling you that each quilt gets easier and easier and you will get faster and faster. If it ever happens again that you have no photo, you can go to edit and scroll down to the box that you put the photos in. I had to do that this morning.

The quilt is so pretty.

My best piece of advise is to never match a fabric exactly. Be a shade off so you can see where you are quilting. I am so thrilled for you
