GORGEOUS! I have to admit something here. For many years, I was a quilting snob. I hated the look of MQ in the early years. And although I still prefer hand quilting, I, thankfully have come to love and appreciate the skill and artistry of MQ. What I love about your quilt, is the evenness of the stitches, and particularly the size and thickness(?) of the thread you used. It looks substantial and confident. You mentioned the thread you used. Is it the thread, the stitch size, or your machine quilting technique/ability? If I could make stitches this lovely, I would really like to get into some FMQ
