    The quilting went fine!! For the smaller pieces, I used a free motion foot, but for this one I had to use the regular foot. Made it much easier!

    I changed the binding fabric and am so happy I did. Since it'll be binding many smaller projects, I ordered more. :wink:

    This is one of my favorite pieces. Top five anyway.

    The back. :-) Oh shoot--I still need to hand sew the bottom of the hanging sleeves. Sigh.

    That is beautiful. I have been looking at florals differently since watching your progress on this quilt.

    AWESOME!!!

    i love the quilting too - so many people go over board with the quilting on a bargello and destroy the illusion.

    Beautiful--you really have an eye for color and color placement. Can you teach me? I really like it without the border. I think (very humble opinion here) that a border would have taken away from the waterfall effect. Just love it-thanks for the pics.
