Default Jordan River is quilted

Here is my latest quilt. It finished at 63" x 77". It's called Jordan River, and it's from The Big Book of Patchwork by Judy Hopkins. I have had so much enjoyment out of my new-to-me longarm. I had my doubts in the beginning, but I love it now. I worried about how hard it would be when running by the computer and running out of bobbin. It was a piece of cake to "repair pattern," as it's called. Now I just have to figure out how to import additional quilting patterns from the Internet, because the ones that are built into the program are limited.

Tartan and I think alike...I would have named it Box of Chocolates as that was the first impression it gave me.

An attractive use of your brown fabrics. Such a simple pattern that leaves a BIG impact.

I love the colors in that quilt. I don't think I've ever seen a white border & am loving how beautiful it is on your quilt. Have fun with the new long arm machine & show us more as you progress.

Osewme, I do white borders all the time. It makes the patchwork appear to be floating.
Beautiful quilt….enjoy the longarm!!
