I think your quilt is beautiful and the grid quilting seems the best choice for Utilitarian quilts. Love that word...FINISHED :)

Could that be since you joined the board, Melissa? I only ask because that's me to a tee! It's all the great ideas and inspiration I find here that I just HAVE to make. I've also dipped my toe in the water of machine quilting to get some things done quicker, but a beautiful, traditional quilt like yours just DESERVED the beautiful hand quilting you did! Great job! :D
