    It really is pretty. I spent a lot of time today looking at videos on Leah Day's site. In particular, her all-over videos. If you haven't visited her site, you might find some good ideas there. Here's the link:

    Scroll down and look at the videos for all over quilting and section quilting.

    Beautiful quilt top! I would really like to see that quilted in the circle pattern done with the "groovy" board that some of the LA quilters use. If you are doing it yourself, you could STD on the lines between the blocks and then use the circle parts as a guide to do concentric circles inside the fabric circles.

    Really pretty! And I really like the name "Blue Moon". Some people are just so creative...I would never have come up with a name like that... anyway - it's gorgeous! :thumbup:

    Great quilt! Like you, I tried the Curve Master also and didn't like it. I've done a couple of these quilts since and it's really not hard too hard to sew the curves once you get the hang of it.

    Thanks!
    I ended up pinning and using the curve master. what got me was some of them turned out perfect and some didn't no matter how many times I sewed it.
