I've finished quilting the Farm Block Exchange quilt. I really LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this quilt. All the blocks I got were wonderful. I still have enough to make another quilt!
I quilted it on my new Brother 1500S. It has a 9 inch throat so it was so much easier than shoving it through my little machine. I attempted FMQ and am still not very good at it, but better than on my old machine. I had thread shredding issues. At first, I thought it was the top thread but am now pretty sure it's the bottom thread shredding. I'm scared of adjusting the tension on the bottom case because I've never done that before.

It's not hard to make a cute quilt when you let all the talented folks here on the board send you blocks. The Farm Block exchange was such fun. I really need to look into another exchange soon.
