    Default Quilt top done.

    Just finished this quilt top this weekend. It sure went together quickly. Which of course leads to more decisions, should I hand-quilt or send out the LAQ?

    I love that pattern! Do you enjoy hand quilting? it would be a nice winter project if you do. It does have some large white areas that an expert longarmer could highlight with intricate designs.

    I would seriously consider doing the quilting yourself! Professional quilting so often is very beautiful, but often overpowers the design of the quilt. A cross is a symbol of simplicity and love. It doesn't need a lot of fuss. So I vote for hand quilting.
