    I love your quilt! I think the Baptist Fan quilting enhances the quilt - not takes away from it! Great job!

    I think this is beautiful and love the quilting. I'm starting to do a little practice with machine quilting and I'm studying yours...not looking for faults! I promise! But trying to think how you did it. The stitching on the border that looks like piano keys...how did you do that? Did you go inside out, stitch over and back down outside in? Or did you go all one direction? It looks like that would be A LOT of work! Thank you for your input.

    I think the quilting is great for this design. It really keeps the eye moving. Beautiful colors.

    I stitched up/across then down/across. Didn't like the way that looked on the back, so changed to my walking foot and did straight stitching--a real hassle turning the quilt all the time--it looked a lot better. Thanks for all the kind comments, the more I look at the quilt, the more I see the movement and it looks pretty good

    Beautiful quilt in my favorite color! That wonderful lime green. The quilting is stellar and adds to the interest!
