My oldest daughter sews as well, so she has a machine in the room, too. There are times when we're all 3 in the room together and we manage to keep from stepping on each other.

    Gorgeous quilt, and I love the scalloped edge. I'd also like to see a tutorial. Some of my quilts had "wavy" edges - but that's another story.

    Eddie - Beautiful quilt. Did you cut your binding on the bias or straight cut?

    I cut it on the bias. It gave it more stretchiness that way and made following the curves easier.
