No, i only have very basic stitches on my machine. My next machine will definitely have numerous stitches and will be one that is made for quilting! Who knew i was going to love to make quilts???

Thank you! I really fell in love with the three center materials. The quilt is turning out so bright and happy...makes me even happier working on it!

Just a suggestion , use blue painters tape and mark a geometic pattern or grid that pleases you. You can buy different width tape and it leaves no residue. Use the tape as a guide and stitch along next to the tape. As for not having a walking foot .. I have a vintage machine with no walking foot. I find it helpful to reduce the pressure on the foot when quilting. This helps to eliminates some puckering. Spray basting as well will reduce the puckering.

The straight line quilting is exactly what i am thinking for in the blue and white section. Hmmm...I will have to give some thought to the cross hatch. May be an idea...
Thank you! Lin |
Thank You!!! I will read up on QAYG as I have no clue how it is done, lol.

Maybe stitch in the ditch around the smaller triangles?

Thank you for the suggestion! I have to go to the hardware store tomorrow so i will pick up some tape!

Be sure that you read the label on the batting that you intend to use. It will tell you how far apart you can space the quilting. It might take a lot less than you think! Nice colors:thumbup:

You might want to do a circle in the block if you want it to look like it is turning. As in a spiraling circle starting small in the center and echoing out from there.

Very pretty block!
