    Started quilting my grandson's quilt using free motion quilting. Not the prettiest work I've seen but it's a start. My grandson will be 2 in May and it is for his birthday present. He won't be scrutinizing it much that's a good thing. I just hope his mom won't either. Funny how challenging making a bunch of squiggily lines can be. Had to stop because I was tired. Can't wait to start again tomorrow. I guess it's a good thing we lose an hour tonight. LOL! Will post pics when I'm done.
