    now accepting all quilting suggestions!!!

    if i had more time (i feel like i am somehow racing....) i would handquilt an amish daisy chain with the flowers landing on the small pinwheels and the chain crisscrossing through the sashing and blocks. maybe it's time to learn how to machine quilt something more interesting than grids and straight lines

    It turned out totally gorgeous! Aren't you glad you didn't add anything to it!!

    How beautiful! Here you were worried all this time about it being too bland....it's actually quite "zingy". I have no suggestions on how to machine quilt it.....I am still ditching and doing grids (I am by nature a handquilter). It's been fun watching this thread. Please let us see when it's quilted.
