    Default quilting

    I just got done quilting this quilt it is mine and it has alot of seams well to start with I did not get the backing on straight so had to mess with that after I had the backing and quilt basted across the top. It was not fun then in the borders I wanted to do feathers and then my choice of thread color was not the best I could not see where I had quilted. It seemed that the quilt was puckering on top so worked had to keep it from doing that. well it is off the frame and it looks better than I thought it would the quilting is all over tha place not at all like I planned but I just did what I could I am really glad it was my quilt and not somone elses.

    Keep working at it! Each set back is two steps ahead next time.

    Any lessons learned? I learn something new with each quilt, its one of the reasons I love quilting, it can be challenging. Even the best longarmers have their tales of woe. Congrats on sticking with it and having a finish!
