    Back in November 2010, before I had shoulder surgery, I posted a Longarm Bandit vent. Anyway, I never got back in touch with the said "longarmer/friend" as she has moved, and I figured I would finish it myself. I echo quilted on my Janome 6600. It is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but, after removing the previous borders and adding new ones, I am pleased with the way it turned out. My daughter also wanted throw pillows as opposed to pillowcases. Finally, here is the final project. I started it for her 30th birthday, and she'll be 34 soon. The important thing is she loves it!!!

    The pattern is " Star Medallion" by Jean Boyd...I used 6 of the blocks (37"x37")

    Again the label is an iron-transfer that I coloured and outlined

    Her three pillowshams. Quilt ended up being 108" x 116"
