Thank you, yes I did, just a meander. It's too small to do much else in the body - and all the quilting is done with Bottom Line to keep it in proportion.

It's interesting isn't it - how you suddenly get fired up by doing something different. The big quilt is quite "big" and I have done the layout in a way I've not tried before.
As soon as DH moves his decorating ladders and paint pots out of the way I will get it layered and get some photos.
I am impatient to get it done - but when they pick up paintbrushes and start, you don't dare say anything - or they down tools!

Good idea - I'm on a 6600. So you will have lots of fun with an Horizon.
I dont think the thread colour shows up too well but it is a lovely bright turquoise (Bottom Line).
