    BW- I did a double stitch in the ditch, but it was about 3/8" away from the actual ditch. I will try to find a better picture. It was a quite a bit of stopping and starting, but with a nice machine and a walking foot, it was FUN. I didn't HATE it! LOL! So don't be scared.

    This was the first time that I ever was able to complete the machine quilting on one of my quilts. I had started them before and had to rip them apart. (I was trying free motion and it was BAD.)

    I will try to find a better picture of the quilting for you.

    What a neat quilt! I'm sure they will get lots of warm comfy nites under it.

    Beautiful quilt! I'm sure they will love it. I just love the crispness that the white gives it. I really like how you quilted it. This quilt is perfect for Christmas, but to me it also speaks of summer. I think the crispness is what reminds me of watermelon!!!!

    It looks really good! I am going to try mine Thursday. It can't be as hard as fmq! Don't you love how easy the zig zag is? I think I'm going to make more of these. :D
