Mine is quilted, all I have to do is cut the binding strips and label. Dummy me, I put a spool of hand quilting thread on my machine and had to rip out the majority of the quilting because it bunched up. Glad it was a small quilt that had to be ripped instead a h u g e one! LOL

Buslady, you're right. NOTHING boring about solids.
Here is the amazing little quilt made by my partner BuzzinBumble aka Lara. My photo doesn't do justice to the colors. They are fantastic. And the pieces are soooo teeny tiny!
She was also so kind and generous and sent some minky (which I've never sewn with before), two magazines with some extremely cool modern and civil war patterns I want to try, and patterns for a seasonal quilt and an Amish doll!
Thank you sooo much!
OOPS! Sorry about the extra photos. They didn't seem to be uploading ... but I guess they were! Now they won't go!!!

Question: My Amish Quilt is a sampler done in black blue and purple. I was planning on using my embroidery machine for the quilting pattern, but wonder about the thread. Yesterday when I was in Joann I picked up some variegated thread that goes from black to gray. What do you think? Or should I stick with black?
