    ...and all the musicians have left the barn. Sorry, bad attempt at humor. I have finished Square dance. It is my first attempt at free motion quilting using Mabel (my 201-2) and rulers. Not as easy as it looks. The first few rows of FMQ....UGH, but it got better as I went. I finished the quilt with a scrappy binding (not sure if you can see it or not in the pictures). Only thing left to do is to try and wash the glue out that I used for basting.

    WMUTeach - It was just something I dreamed up in my head so that I could use my stash of Pre-Civil War material. It was a quick quilt to make since I could chain piece the squares together, then chain piece the blocks.

    It turned out lovely and your quilting looks great. Love the simple pattern that scatters the colors.
