Love it! For me there just isn't anything better about a quilt than "hand quilted". So often wanted a "hand" done quilt but I can't do it. Maybe someday I will be lucky enough to have one given as a gift. Keep up the beautiful work.

The quilting on that is just stunning!

I just finished a DP but I made points instead of round edges because that was easier for me.

How did you get your round edges so perfect?

T, no matter what you do, it always finishes up beautifully. How long did you work on this? Did you use a hoop or a frame? I wish I had your tenacity..G

Thank you all so much! I always have to smile if you praise my patience. I am a very impatient person!! But if it comes to quilting I felt from the beginning that the only important thing is the next step, the next block, the next stitch. If ones only goal is finishing a project everything goes wrong or even worse, seeing the long way ahead of you, you might drop it.
I made a template for the pedals out of thin cardboard and stitched the fabric with long stitches, pulling the thread to make the fabric fit the template and then starched and ironed it.

Thanks so much G. I used a simple plastic tube frame. As there were a lot of long strait lines it worked better than the grace loop.
