    Well I am super impressed, I went to the Indiana Heritage Quilt Show this weekend and bought a book and clothsline to make a fabric bowl and I did not do very well, what did you set your zig zag stitch length at when you made it?

    I did bump up the stitch width some from the default width of 3.5 mm. I set it to 5.0 mm to more easily catch both sides of the clothesline.

    Oh, Eddie, it's just beautiful. Someday, someday... I'm just so envious of so many of you and your talent! Will I ever be that good?! Wow

    Oh my that is breathtaking! I tried a little bargello. Got strips sewed and cut but was overwhelmed with all these strips. maybe i'll get back to it sometime.

    You really put a lot of time in this and it is amazing

    Love that bargello! I have that book and plan to give that one a try, too. Great job, Eddie.
