    Emma, the pup is giving you a hint they want a quilt made out of your scraps for them. LOL. Very cute pic.

    I'm at the sashing stage on my quilt top - might be a little more time before I can finish. However, I've already checked out our next Train Ride #9. That one sure looks like a lot of fun, too. Looks like I'll just have to play "catch up" for the next several weeks.

    Jaba, I have seen many beautiful quilts from this ride, but I really love yours. It must be the batiks.

    Also, what tips do you have for keeping the back square with the top when quilting.

    Thank you so much! Appreciate your comments. As far as tips go, measure carefully and on the long arm table I make sure to have my tension on the rollers for the top and bottom the same or close to the same as I can get it. This way it tightens both pieces without stretching one more than the other.

    Honchey, I think if you add a couple more red triangles you will like it better

    Finished my #8 so I could participate in #9. Still will need to be quilted. But I just sent several off to be done. So, might be a little while.
