I put my first quilt on the frame last night and just started quilting. The machine came with a couple of rolls of patterns so I picked the one with hearts on it. It is probably meant to be a border design, not an all-over one, but that's fine with me right now.
Maybe I can go back and just do the curlicues between the rows to fill in some more. The rows should probably be closer together. I'm sure I'll learn my lessons as I do it.

Fantastic Pam!! Looks awesome.
Just wanted to be sure you're still coming tomorrow to The Cotton Patch? Remember to bring everything you'll need...except that mondo long arm - no room for it! I will get there right around one, so I'll hold you a spot at my table if I get there first. You do the same for me, okay? If Christie is there, ask here where I normally sit. She's the "leader" and most everyone has their typical places. Call me if you need anything!

Thank you all. I know that the quilt pattern calls out for something in the sashing and something in the blocks. I'm just not ready for that and this is a simple layer cake and jelly roll quilt that took just a few days to make so I'm not worried about it.
I was stuck for the last week and looking at what quilts I have and what was I going to do!?!? I finally decided that I just had to start doing something.

Oh... what about snacks? I am just going to get something at the store, a tray of sweets or maybe a meat and cheese tray?
