OK, now I firmly believe that some people are machine-quilting gifted, and others of us are machine-quilting retarded (ME!!!) Your quilt it gorgeous, and your machine-quilting in amazing! Good job!

Actually, I did start out easy. The fan itself was only 3 pieces (the dark burgundy, the pink and the white). I fell in love with the pink and didn't want to cut it up so I took dark burgundy thread and stitched through it to give it a fan look.

The white blocks were done with a template and a washable marker :lol:
