    Yes, I did a bit of Trapunto to emphasise the points, and the cream squares have been quilted with twin needles, done just after a workshop I attended, so I wanted to try it out.

    Chele is also waiting, but the good news is that I posted it but a bit ago. it is on it's way. I hope that when she gets it she doesn't laugh to loudly at my quilting. It way different doing it on the small machine than the big, one day I igiht try to figure out how to get them on the big machine, I have to say anyone that quilts regular size on their small machines, wow, I was sore after doing the little one.

    So when taking a picture of it, stand way way way back please. :oops:

    Needs must Cutie, if you don't have a long arm, then you use what you have. But I do enjoy the process, as long as hauling the quilt under the needle isn't too heavy, and these little babies are very light.

    I commend anyone doing it on a regular basis, I would never be able to do FMQ on a big one, I would have to do straight stitching or I would have to tie it. My shoulder (I have a bum one) just wouldn't take this kind of thing often. I liked having my embroidery machine do the work for me. But I did learn some things playing with it, (I did take out the first bit that I did and did it again)
