Took my new Bailey Home Quilter out for a spin!! I love it!

My husband recently bought me a Baileys Home Quilting machine for my 35th anniversary. We got it on eBay for $900!! It's the 13" model. It is twice the size of my DSM so I'm very happy with it. I made this scrappy on my DSM and then quilted it on Bailey. I loved being able to meander with NO eyelashes! I was not able to do that successfully on my DSM. This lap quilt is for a thank you gift to an older lady who is just the most hospitable person ever. I hope she likes it. The colors and style match her home, so I don't know why she wouldn't like it. ;-)

Love it. How large are the largest blocks? Looks like a version of the fence rail. Hadn't thought of making smaller side blocks with a larger one in the middle. Like the quilting also. BrendaK
