Here it is, all quilted. Tomorrow it gets binding and a label and it will be ready to be gifted to friends of ours. This is the first time I have done any FMQing that is not just stipple. I'm pleased with it. I put the design on freezer paper, ironed it to the squares and sewing along the lines. It worked great and the paper was not hard to remove.
