You are an inspiration to those of us who do our own quilting on a DSM. Great quilt and quilting!

One small point of interest is that I do all of my quilting on a domestic sewing machine so I am always looking for easy ways to keep it straight and true without time consuming rulers and marking. The white on white polka dots made for an easy way to keep the little arches going straight and true even though they are not all perfect.

I think you did a wonderful job. The colors & work are just great. Thank you for sharing.

Your quilt is lovely - so much more than just your comission to "make a babyquilt and embroider her name on it!" Just a beautiful piece of work - an heirloom. :)

Very pretty quilt, love your quilting. With your beautiful quilting on your domestic, you certainly don't seem to need a LA. You do beautiful work!!
