    Cool Such Unique and Brilliant Projects!

    Thank you for sharing all of your projects. I was really inspired. I love to play with free motion machine embroidery; it is fun and relaxing.

    They are all very nice. I'm still intimidated in doing free motion quilting, although I've done a little. I think you did a great job.

    You should not apologize - there are as many ways to quilt as there are quilters. We all learn new things when there are folks who figure out how they like to do things and then share it with others. Every single one of those quilted projects is lovely! I especially love your cross stitch quilted pillow.

    I do a wide tight zigzag stitch all around the edge and then sew the fabric onto this edge. I don't thing the cross stitch would hold up very well to washing, so I have never tried it in anything like a quilt. Let me know if you do.

    I like to draw and usually see an idea somewhere on something and then draw my own pattern. The table topper and the star wall quilt were patterns from quilts in magazines and I just used them to make what I wanted. My sister cross stitches and just gives me things and says "Make something out of it". Sometimes it takes me a long time to figure out what that something will be.

    The flower basket is a half log cabin square and it really was a happy accident. The flowers were me experimenting with varigated thread and applique.

    Thank you all for the comments and inspiration! Rhonda

    All your projects are very nice. I loved your quote, "My fall pumpkin wall quilt, the one and only time I ever plan on handquilting!" That made me smile.
