    Oh what a beautiful quilt. I would probably outline within the triangles. Then something a little curvy in the sashing.

    But I am not very creative when it comes to the quilting.
    My first love is piecing the top.

    You did a great job. I would outline each piece. I find hand quilting to be relaxing, but I usually machine quilt cuz I'm always in a hurry to start the next one!

    If that is the same as shadow quilting - I would totally agree with you. Edie

    If this is a quilt for yourself, I wouldn't worry about that one triangle. Of course, if you are making it for someone else, I guess it would be important to fix. I really had to look hard to see the error. It doesn't take away from the beauty of the quilt! Love it!

    Hi alderdweller, All I can say is WOW!!!!!! You did a fanastic job. I am a novice quilter myself. The first quilt I made was in the Bear Paw block and I hand quilted. It is not the best job but I am proud of it. Keep up the good work. Jeanniebelle

    At least I know before it was quilted and can fix it now if I choose. Really appreciate the help!
    Now that YOU POINTED IT OUT I see it. But I didn't even notice it before.
