    Wow that's really good. It seriously looks like hand quilting. :) Is that a two color thread?

    the color is called sand, it looks like an ecru. I'm working on controlling my stitch length, it's kind of erratic.

    In that case it completely looks like hand quilting. I thought the longs and the shorts looked good, Crazy thought perhaps but it creates a nice effect with the free form hearts. :)

    You are doing a fabulous job!! I have never tried hearts or swirls--they look hard. Your stitches are a nice length. I see VERY LITTLE fluxuation in size---mine go from teeny tiny to "toe catcher"!!! I am very impressed!!!
