    I just finished the quilt I made for my hubby for our 2nd Anniversary. He picked the pattern, colors, etc without knowing it was for him. He loves how it turned out!

    This is only the second quilt I have made and first time free motion quilting, so any tips/advice would be great. I appreciate all the comments I received on a previous post about problems I was having with the quilting.

    Thanks for looking!
