Default Working on This One for the County Fair
I've been working on this quilt off and on since New Year's and am trying to get it finished in time for the county fair in a about a month. This is the first time I've done quilting this densely on a large piece. It measures about 60 inches square, but the edges will be rounded/wavy. I haven't quite figured out what I'm going to do for the binding, but would like to use some bright green piping or couching with a dark blue binding I think.

No, I've done the quilting on my DMS, a Juki straight stitch machine.
